Prediction:
Charities will not be providing food for the poor in 2035.
Objective measurement:
The Salvation Army will have closed down its last permanent soup kitchen before this date.
When:
December 31, 2035
Why:
Nanotechnology will be so cheap, and so available by then, that good "cooked" food will cost only a few fractions of a cent per tonne. In the same way that we now consider public telephone boxes a necessity for a modern city, people will petition local councils to do the same with food printers. Why do I believe nanotechnology will be so cheap by then? Consider the size of a computer 40 years ago....
Further comments:
None.
