Will the non-existent middle class get an ambient income to go with this ambient reality?
For anyone poor who hates seeing unexpected charges on their bank statements, this future sounds like hell. Or what about those people who see a future where they don't want to accumulate a bunch of junk?
Would retailers take advantage of this? Would I arrive home after the first day of opting into this system to an apartment filled with stupid gadgets that I didn't know I needed? Maybe my blood pressure sensor would realize that somebody screwed up and send a drone to take all that crap back. ;)
On the other hand. I'm hungry. I'll be expecting my cheeseburger to arrive any minute now.
