As technology progresses there will be no alternative but to share more with those who can't get a job that pays a decent wage.

Tubes killed many businesses because most of the money spent was going to a small sector of the business. As the big ones harvest more of the traffic small tubes will whither.

As big dating, cam, porn sites get bigger and crush small ones. Many people will lose jobs and income.

As robots replace human workers, what happens to our customer base, will they be too poor to buy enough to sustain our income, or subsidised so we can still sell?

You can't keep saying fuck them, I'm alright Jack.

We are seeing a massive drop in real incomes since we started to export jobs, the future will need 21st thinking.
