what will business, industry, and education will be like in fifty years?
107113
Well, let's look at what happened 50 years ago  In 1956,  business was done by paper, consumer products led industry and education was combination mostly trade prep.  Today business is electronic, industry is service with women in workforce and education is college prep.  In 50 years I suspect business will be nearly 100 percent global with uniform currency, manufacturing will become a more "do it yourself" venture where you will be able to buy a machine can recreate many items, and education will change little.

This site has a timeline of everyday inventions; it covers more than the fifty years you want, but it is fairly short and there seems to be some other useful information on the site.\n\nhttp://www.factmonster.com/ipka/A0768871.html

in the next 5 years there will be a lot of people unable to pay their mortgages, so a lot of repos.  in 10 we will be recovering from the disaster of the "hidden inflation" technique of money management by the Fed.  in 25 years we will be asking China if we can have some input and a share of their base on the Moon.  in 40 years there will be no unions, and no consumer protection.  in 50 there will be a great depression, followed by the rise of a labor movement, and the restoration of consumer protections.  Rinse & repeat.

Things will change and i think for good. Human beings will stop playing with nature.\n\nIn next 25 years the whole world come very close and there would not be any problems of race, cultures and terrorism as people will slowly realise that these things dont help a community to grow. \n\nScience will open new doors and we cant even think what all new things we'll see in next 25 years.

Better technology and medicine is a given. Gas prices will probably be higher. People will continue to complain about the economy but no one will do anything about it. We'll have a different president (the way things are going now, probably a Democrat), but we'll still have troops over in Iraq. TV shows like "The Simpsons" and "Friends" will continue to be on reruns every other hour. Americans will continue their dieting craze, but won't stop eating fast food. More doomsayers will emerge, just as people did right before Y2K. And as for resolving the immigration issue, I really have no idea...

Technology of the future.\n\nGuranteed by the richest man in the world.

FIFTY twenty-five? Not twenty twenty-five?\n\nWell, assuming human civilization even still exists, I think there would be very, very, very radical changes by then. Christianity and Islam will be long forgotten; they will probably even be considered mythology. A lot of the East Asian belief systems will endure, though. Buddhism will stick around, and Hinduism as well. Religions will steer away from holy texts and churches and places of worship, and there will be more of a focus on one's personal spirituality. There may even come a time when the majority of people don't believe in any deities at all, because there will be more of an emphasis on spirituality instead of a "sky daddy" parent figure who rewards you or punishes you.

All be the same-doubtful. we are, and will always be different. However, i do think everyone will hear of mcdonalds or famous people one day. Technology is expanding. Anyone who lives in developed countries or has acces to the internet will have. Progress economically will match peoples knowledge. One day, everyone won't be able to drive for a few hours without passing fast food restaurants

to put it in a nutshell, it is projected that china, in 30-50 years, in our lifetime, WIL be (quite likely along with india), the word's superpower... taking america's place

In the US here's the top job prospects for the future in my humble opinion.  \n\nHealth Care, especially Registered Nurses -   Americans are aging and the use of Health Care facilities and services are increasing as a result.  \n\nCollections - The debt load of Americans has increased over the last few years and as Interest rates rise there will be more and more accounts entering into the Collections phase.  \n\nSocial Workers, especially in the Mental Health field - As the problems noted above increase, people are going to get more stressed out and seek the use of Counselors and Therapists.  \n\nHome Contractors / Construction - More and more Americans will be building an addition on to their homes to care for their aging parents.  It's cheaper than a Nursing Home and allows a relative to ensure care is being provided in the standard that they wish.  In addition, if there is a move to remove illegal workers from the US it will also add to the need for qualified individuals to practice in this field.

20 years is not a long period of time.  I think that the United States will still definitely "think" it is the center of the world, just like it does now.  But the oil will still belong to the arabs, the chinese will still make everything and  drugs will still make you more money than anything else (think tobacco).\n\nSo corporations who control drugs, food, alcohol, oil and information will rule the world (kinda like they do now)\n\nAs for being slaves to machines, take a look at us now.  We are volunteering hours of time answering questions for free while an unmanned machine watches over us! Talk about the "Matrix".\n\nThe real source of ultimate power for most of the world is water.  There can be no life with out it.  Look forward to tremendous suffering, starvation and brutality as America continues to have one fifth of the worlds population but uses FOUR fifths of the worlds resources.

Of course it will.\n\nCompare life today to life in the 1600s. Huge changes.\n\nThe amount of problems will stay the same. For every one solved, there will be a new one created. \nOn the other hand, the most serious of problems will go down. (Technology has helped bring down infant mortality rates, lowered deaths from disease, illness and injury, allows more food to grow with less effort in slmaller areas, extended lifespans, etc.)
