Not me. Just noting the phenom. I used to read Popular Science when I was a kid, predicting things like flying cars, robots building everything and the coming problem of how to fill our leisure time when machines did all the woik! But it doesn't work when the only ones getting paid are the investor class, something Popular Science didn't address. Want fries with that?

I remember reading about the early days of Henry Ford, how at first he was paying his workers the going rate for labor, but wasn't selling enough cars. He jacked up his own workers pay to what other industrialists thought was an insane rate, so they could afford to buy the cars they were building, and sold all he could produce. We need some thinking like this - some social genius.
