The future ascent (and descent) of man  

Very interesting.  I can see technologies bad effects on people and how economic classes are.  

What do you think?

its nothing but a theory, and an unlikely one at that. It is just an upper class man attempting to restore the idea of a ruling class.

Is there really? when i say ruling class i mean a class unto which one is born and remains all their lives. I cant deny there is still one in the UK (which to be honest, i am not opposed to) but surely in America, the land of equality, this is not the case?

America isn't equal.  It can be seen by there being millionares who can buy what ever they want and there also being people who are living paycheck to paycheck.  amerikkka isn't equal.

but that is a meritocracy. People are where they are because of the actions they have made. There are always going to be corrupt people, but in general, millionaires are millionaires because of the choices they have made...

Sometimes a person can work very hard but still not become a millionare.  It's not only a person's actions.  You can't choose what you are born into.  So it's not your choice.  Also it takes money to make money.

You can't say circumstance doesn't have a lot to do with it.  Most rich people are rich because they came from affluent families who had the means to provide them the education, connections and opportunities to make more money.  Compare that to someone who can't afford to go to college and who will forever be locked out of the best paying jobs and career opportunities.

This is the stuff of good sci-fi, but it is complete and utter fiction.  There are billions and billions of different factors that will influence mankind's situation over the next 100,000 years, and there is absolutely no way to realistically speculate where we will be.  Look how much society has changed in just the last 200 years.

I bet the world will have ended much sooner before 100,000 years from now.

Oh, my achey breakey commie heart!

It's America. You're rampant capitalists. Quit whining about it, and go and make some money.

If you distribute all wealth across the globe evenly, it would be back where it is now in not too long. Those who are smart with their money will prosper, those who aren't will lose it. If you work, you'll earn. If you slack off, then that's your right, but don't expect any support.

I find this guy pretty moronic. He basiclly said in a different article that men would get more manly and women would get more feminine. An idiot if you ask me. As said before, there are to many factors involved to already know what humans will evolve into. Plus in 10,000 years the human race will probably be extinct.
