Don Paskini has a depressing vision of the future:
Redwood’s vision is one in which increasing numbers of elderly people spend the last years of their lives in unregulated care homes, vulnerable to abuse in institutions whose first duty is to maximise profits for their shareholders, and then when they die, their beneficiaries receive tax-free inheritances based not on their own efforts but how little of their parents’ money was spent on their care. A less appealing society to live in can hardly be imagined.
Less sensational than the imaginings of Orwell or Aldous Huxley, but a lot more likely in a much shorter timeframe.
