Robots perform our mundane tasks like garbage clean up. Doctor visits are superfluous now due to scanners that run over our bodies telling us what is wrong. We can telecommunicate to work and have virtual conferences with our bosses. And overpopulation is a problem.
Most of the population live in overcrowded cities where crime runs rampant. No government can control the desperation of millions of people. And kids have nowhere to turn to.

People refer to the Massacre of 2017. Not a war between armies. Not even a war between competing governments. But the massacre of the education system. The arts were taken from schools, leading to the automation of children. Mindless drones of math and science roam the streets. Creativity? What even is that?
The disbandment of after-school programs led these kids to the streets to learn from those desperate humans scraping for food. For hope.
On the bright side, tobacco consumption is down to zero percent. Whites are no longer the majority, measuring only 47% in the United States. Race and Age gaps are a thing of the past. And, if people are lucky, they get to see photographs of trees.
The only green place in America is located in the Appalachian Mountains near the East Coast, which are a lonely 5% of what they used to be. There is a nationwide drought going on for years. New Orleans is submerged under water. And Yellowstone National Park is talked about like Constantinople.
The air is toxic. People can't leave their houses without a mask on. Hospitals are seriously underfunded and under-stocked. Many people can't afford health care. Daily death counts land in the millions. The average life span is 41 years old.
illegal immigration is no longer a problem. Mainly because no one wants to come to the desperate wasteland once known as the greatest country in the world.
And the top one percent? They all fled the country to much more sustainable ecosystems, leaving the economy in shambles and inflation skyrocketing.
Those too poor have to remian in the US, fighting off declining health, detrimental environmental problems, and the paranoia of their neighbors.
But, these problems are 50 years off. There's no reason to worry about them because most of us won't even have to deal with the problems of the future. Right? It's okay to not care about our children and our grandchildren. They can deal with the probelms when it gets to them.
