One of the most difficult things for a human to do is predict the future because our worldview is shaped by the technology of today.

Technology, not government intervention, will make the problems of today the products/services of tomorrow. That is a fact. The explosion of new technology grows at an ever increasing rate in every field - materials, energy, agriculture, health, computers, etc etc.

The future is bright if we allow freedom and capitalism to prevail.

Yes, as a philosopher said long ago,

"It is hard to make predictions, especially about the future."

(Quoth Yogi Berra, or Mark Twain, or Samuel Goldwyn, or Niels Bohr, or Aristotle, or whoever -- just pick whichever source you might prefer.)

So True.

Remember ‘Peak Oil’?

Totally reasonable prediction based on the extraction technology available at the time.
