Here the BBC from 1969, suggest banking and purchasing in the future. They got a lot right but failed to see how ubiquitous the system could and did become. Mainly because it became so much easier to install in any business environment and also the size and relative cost of the computer equipment needed to keep these type of records.

Capitalism IS a LOVE STORY... An unflinching and unending one at that. It is the bulwark between emotional toils towards insanity and the cold hard equation for which all techies grew up regarding in the highest nobility... Logic.
Post WWII they feared the release of a million soldiers and factory workers into the private sector... Yet, "Geeee" there was no severe down turn... Today they scream the same cry of Wolf... It's old... Way older than our own nation... We've all heard this before.
We hear it when Al Gore speaks... We here it when Obama speaks... We hear it when *insert politician here* speaks... We hear it when Hear speaks speaks speaks speaks... Hear speaks... Double, triple and quadruple toil speaks...
... You want to employ workers... Hire them to build a canal with forks right???? When will the ignorance, madness and lack of logic end??? No, the individual isn't perfect... But what you just watched is a reflection of that... Do you really want a mass dictating liberties and doctrine based upon the knee jerk reaction of some new tech which isn't fully understood... Much less a "Theory" RIGHT???? Seriously??? How insane must we be... And yes we have been ALL proven as such since it DOES happen AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.... ???? My god people...
Wow John, walked a think line with that one. But at the same time we can see what wild eyed knee jerk legislation gets us. And people wonder why we still employ the electoral college.....lol
I see some "Star Trek" influence in the female computer voice, and the whole report comes dangerously close to "Monty Python" territory, in particular, the scene in the liquor store...
bmh...lol you know you are uncanny with that call...I replayed it again and ....yep...I suspect he paid for an argument
