@RedKen Seems to me that,perhaps, the main modernised populations may have reached a watershed in that technology is now responsible for reduced employment needs and must , therefore, accept that large numbers of an increasing population will inevitably be surplus to requirements and we ,society, must recognise that there simply is nothing for 'the surplus' to do. In fact if rapid modernisation of the lower economies happens then it follows that huge numbers of them will also be deemed 'surplus'---there are, of course, many avenues to explore on this subject.

It should be noted that even now the government is continuing to borrow money--the State is bankrupt in all but name and employees of the 'State' have to accept this about their employers. Read that borrowing is set to be £500 billion or whatever half a trillion looks like ;D
