WHAT IS WAITING FOR THE FUTURE? A TRUE VIEW OF REALITY ...

1)Reasonable space
We are waiting for life online. Every second, every person, every object in one network, forming a global intelligent space - a giant social network: biometric passports, ID first external, then embedded in the body, they are also a purse, bank account, rights, insurance and later, communication terminal . Our property is managed by us from anywhere in the world.

2)Food
Mankind will depend on food for a long time. The food deficit in the ever growing population

3)War
The war of the future is a permanent war, it always goes as an element of global competition. It's a war at a distance, a war of machines, information technology and software codes. In this war, the best wars are today's gamers and programmers. Managed micro- and macromachines will perform combat tasks

4)Work
Our hands, eyes, ears, our slaves, and perhaps the curse of our species, will become robots.

A person's life is meaningless! We fly unknown where, and when. Somewhere on the edge, or maybe in the middle of an incredible space that is deadly to us.

and most importantly Bitcoin will live forever !!! Yes, this pyramid will live forever

There is a documentary 'Who Killed the Electric Car' where they show you how the EC1 which was an affordable electric vehicle released in California was killed off because it was to good to the consumer!

Try to find it online and watch it.

 What are your reasons for buying it ?



Hopefully this will happen as soon as possible so we can avoid the pollution caused by vehicles. This is one of my reasons for purchasing an electric car

Alot of the major car manufacturers are turning their sights on electric and hybrid cars and it seems it's only a matter of time before petrol and diesel cars are gone the way of the dodo. Tesla unveiled an impressive truck for transporting goods. Alot of governments and car manufacturers seem to be getting on board with going green for all the obvious reasons but how soon do you predict before electric is the norm in transportation ?

Do you own an electric car or are considering buying one  ? What are your reasons for buying it ?



It's not really a bad idea, given the fact that we have solar power and hydro, it is possible to have these kinds of ideas in the future. In addition, I think it is about time that we act for our mother nature, as we know global warming is slowly killing our planet because of pollution coming from vehicles.

It is a good alternate or solution for air pollution, but like most of them say. Electricity is much expensive than oil.  A lot of manufacturers have introduced hybrid cars way back since 2008 but cosumers were more convinced that it's not convinient to wait for your car to be fully charged before you can use it.

Electric cars have advantage and disadvantage in our society. The advantage is we can prevent pollution like the smoke come out the car that no good to our health and tge disadvantage maybe the oil company is being bankrupt. 

Oil companies may become bankrupt, but you have nothing to worry if you are not residing in an oil producing country such as Saudi Arabia, Russia or Libya. On the other hand, a lot of jobs will be created in the mining and manufacturing sector.

It’s going to depend on the battery a lot. My company had an electric golf cart and it sucked! You could leave fully charged and 15 minuets later you were stranded. Those Tesla trucks don’t really go very far on a charge either. Truck drivers are going to hate it. But it will be alright when AI is behind the wheel and all the truckers are out of a job! Haha jk

Electric car is good idea of the this century. That's very useful thing this time. Fossil fuels are decreasing rapidly. So we must discover other ways to run vehicles. Electric car is the main item to discover that. Most of the vehicle companies change their products to electrical. So we can buy now electric products.

I wouldn't agree with your argument that the availability of fossil fuels is going down. If that was the case, then the crude oil prices would have been rising constantly. On the other hand, they have declined from $120 per barrel in 2013 to $70 per barrel now.

I really do hope that electric cars are the future. We've been relying too much on fossil fuel since the industrial revolution and we really put a dent on our planet's health. More over, as we rely more on fossil fuel, we also hurt ourselves. Cancers and other diseases related to air pollution are on the rise. I just hope that in the future we will discover a more clean and renewable source of energy so we could really reverse global warming. I do hope we are not too late for this.

As its costs decrease and its autonomy increases, we will have more users of these vehicles, effectively, it is the future of the automotive market.

The problem is that the costs are decreasing more rapidly for the diesel run vehicles when compared to the electric vehicles. The cost of electric cars have remained roughly the same for the past 10 years.

If electric cars are so great...

Why are golf carts (electric) so bad...

first, those companies would not be turning their sights toward electric cars were it not for govt. subsidies and tax benefits...if I were elon musk and the govt. gave me 4.7bill$ to develop ANYTHING, then I would do it...second, I am not convinced that it is, in fact "green"...we have yet to see the environmental impact of manufacturing electric cars on a mass scale i.e. chemical plants making lithium batteries, etc...third, it has already been proven that there is not enough lithium in the world to make electric cars for America, let alone the world...so, barring some new tech, it aint gonna fly....for now, it seems to be politics and "feel good" pseudo-altruism...perfect example: the compact fluorescent light bulb...we worked for decades to get mercury out of children's homes...now we put it back because CO2 is the only boogey man you hear about on the news (that, and GE is making a killing off of it)....and in the end, its a piece of shit

I agree with your post. Right now the only group which is benefiting from the electric car scandal is billionaires such as Elon Musk. He is receiving billions of USD in subsidies from the government for dishing out third-rate cars with a price tag of $100,000+.

Elon Musk has and is still setting the pace for future transportation. The electric car idea was expanded by him and now many are running suit.

I just wonder why hyperloop is fully or partially functional what will happen to our current means of transportation.

Uber will need to innovate or be caused to become obsolete

I wonder why so many people mention here about hyperloop, when it is at least 100 years away. It is not going to happen in our lifetime. There is also a chance that it is an elaborate hoax, just like 90% of Musk's ideas.

electric cars run on solar electricity which comes from sun and sunlight is free and petro products tend to be non-renewable resource so its logical that at some point in time in the future we are gonna have electric cars as our primary option available, cause we have limited petrol & diesel, also electric cars have no exhaustion so less load on the air around you. current models of tesla are very promising but they cannot de driven around the world because majority of the countries lack the infra to run electric vehicles, so that is one barrier which electric cars have to overcome. with the improved tech and battery life, electric cars will turn out quite fabulous.

Unless you live in Ontario Canada where electricity keeps going up and up. My next cars going to be electric but not until I slap some solar panels on my house with a battery bank.

I think it's good investment for everyone if we use electronic vehicles it's good saving that I think

It is good for the environment, although I would never say that it is a good saving. An electric car is extremely expensive and the range is from $30,000 to $100,000 in the United States.
