Economies and types of employment are going to change dramatically in the coming decades. One of the things that the last few months has shown is that many high salary jobs aren't really that important after all. If these jobs didn't exist, no one would really notice. It's been people in less valued jobs that have kept the country running. But surely things will have to change? Many people see those on benefits as a burdon on the nation's finances. But they extract a measly sum from the economy say compared to someone earning £100k per year plus. If the UK's wealth was spread about more evenly you'd have pretty much the whole population living a better life. Most of the problems in society would soon be eliminated. But are those who earn more willing to take less. Or will their greed be an everlasting fixture resulting in a much inferior society to what otherwise could be achieved.
