Who knows what the world will be, if there will be one, but I dare say there still would be in only 100 years, but one thing I hope there is, and that is jetpacks!! Though I won't be around for it. When I was growing up, jetpacks were on sci fi shows etc and everyone used to say, in the future, you know around the year 2000 (which to a 15 year old in 1985 seemed like forever away), we will all be flying around with one of those. That was how we would get around, go to work, to the shops, etc. Sooo disappointed that I am not flying around in a jetpack hey!!  Sad . Any inventors out there that can make me one??

Why do parties need. Election campaign costs a lot of money. They also need this money back and even earn. If you will honestly vote it becomes a question whether it will be possible to withdraw your vote. Politicians don't need.

Elections do not need a lot of money at all. The major parties have the money from the corporations that control them to bombard the public with their campaigns, leaving the politicians who actually want to do some good in the word without a voice to tell the people as the do not have the funds to do so and will not be bought to do so. Political parties should be like what we have here in Australia for our Rugby League Clubs. A cap!!!!!  Not one team can have all the best players and pay them what ever they want and money is no object, because all the team have a salary cap to level the playing field. The same should be with our political parties. Corporations should not be able to donate millions of dollars to one party. For one, they actually do buy something with their so called "donations". Its not a donation at all.  One idea I have is that political parties have a membership and there can be different levels, but they are capped to a certain amount and hey if one party gets a nice little sum of money trying to be underhand, well, it can never go over the max membership rate and so the balance over and above gets distributed amongst the  other parties evenly. How much different would our world be, if the people that cared and wanted to make a change for the better of society and the people, could get a say on an even playing field. We don't need money (as we know it) or blockchain in politics and it doesn't even have to cost anything to have a vote/election. We need a mediator/overseer (doesn't have to be people, but I think they should be, but its hard these days to find honest unbiased people as soo many people are enslaved to this world and greed has taken many peoples souls) to make sure the parties vying to be elected are keeping honest and in line with limits. Damn, the majority of people in Aust have anything to do with our elections, are volunteers, from the people that sit in the halls all day to cross you off the roll to say you voted to the people who count the votes. They do it cause they care, not the money and thats how our governments elected should be as well. So where does the billions of dollars go!!! On advertising and brainwashing which none of needs to cost.

Hindsight can be a bitch and it will happen many times in your life. I wish I took more chances with the things, ideas, schemes, inventions, shares/stocks, real estate, that has crossed my path in my lifetime. I have learnt to trust my intuition or my gut instincts and I would say that approx 99% of the time, its been the right thing to do. My gut it telling me its not too late to get into cryptocurrencies and another thing worth investing in would be stocks in marijuana companies. They are exploding
