Read books. They often contain anecdotes like that.

VR solves that.

The idea is that we will develop such stunning abundance that living costs will be very inexpensive and a basic income will be a manageable cost for the government.

Silver got lucky a couple times with predictions and people believe everything he and his company says now. Now that they have clout, they use their predictions to push an agenda, which is why their predictions are so innaccurate.

I have been working on classic mopeds (with the pedals) for the last 10 years. I know everything there is to know about internal combustion mopeds. I wish I could ride a clean electric version. But the Italian-style, legs-together scooter look is just so painfully lame.

Men want to ride something sexier. This is my benchmark: http://bikevx.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/featured5.jpg

Which resources are we running out of? The Earth is made out of the same stuff as us. It's huge.

We are not running out of resources. We may be running low on easily accessed, cheap resources.

We will adapt. New mining tech and asteroid mining will give more resources than we could use. There's accessible asteroids that have enough platinum to give each person on earth thousands of dollars. That's just one of millions. The resources will never run out.
