Maybe a good possible future would be that people focus on earning and saving capital when they are young and try to get to financially independent (ie., can live off the production of saved capital) as soon as possible. If most people were financially independent, jobs people did not want to do would pay well and people could quickly reach financial independence working these jobs (in a decade or so?). I think working hard and having the feeling of earning a life full of choices would go a long ways to prevent the psychological malaise of sucking from some one else's (the government) teat ones whole life. Also, having most of society overseeing capital instead of the 1% would probably be a good thing. This is possible today in the USA, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia, etc. See the Mr Money Mustache[1] blog for an extended description and discussion of one way of living this life.
