The Future

The Future - is it going to be the Western civilization decadence for some newcoming group or are we going towards a new level of evolution, leaving back profit economy-based society (Capitalism) and embracing a new Golden Age with the help of social responsibility, solidarity, social connection, with a new value chain not tied to financial profit?

Is it true that lies will be very difficult in the Connected Era, when Hidden Persuaders can be outlied in the wink of an eye by one trusted friend in-between the 6 grades of separation?

Is it true that politics will never be the same, with evangelists and connectors being the new influencers and maybe delegates, without the need of campaigns but with a continuous information feed between candidates, opinion makers, curious, listeners (and also sabotators) and maybe direct vote?

Will it be easier to manipulate information or impossible to lie?
