The economy has not looked to great for people making moderate to high incomes in the U.S. for nearly 10 years now. While the government promised jobs and programs to help with financial adjustments, the result was not enough work and programs that had disgruntled workers. This ended up leading to additional financial failures for people that participated in the programs.
While this has improved greatly over the last few years, it is something that should not have happened in the first place. Overall, a lot of the math was off, and workers were struggling to make sense of budgets while trying to maximize dollars.
Before the recession started, the following discoveries were made regarding working class, middle class, rich, wealthy, well off, and poor.
| Income Level | Equality Class |
| $10M-$15M in Assets | Wealthy |
| $1.2M/yearly income | Middle Class |
| $500k-$600k yearly income | Working Class |
| $200k yearly income | Bluecollar or Office collar |
| $85k to $115k yearly | Working poor |
| $60k to $85k yearly | Financially Disadvantaged |
| $40k to $50k yearly | Poor |
| Incomes below $85k per year often receive additional assessment to determine level of resources and context of money in the environment. | |
This means that the 20 to 50 year age group, who was running the economy from 2010 to 2017.5 had a goal of $200k/yr income for the average household in America with most families struggling to go above the $50k to $60k income levels.
In this scenario, a single adult that is kind of poor and financially irresponsible, but still works enough to pay for most of their own things and live in their own apartment, would make about $85k per year.
A responsible father might make $185k to $200k per year and the wife might bring home an extra $40k to $50k for part time work or work from home instead of the $25k to $35k extra income for a wife with a husband that makes $40k to $60k per year.
Retail and fast food workers would be mostly supervisors and team leads in heavily automated environments making $40k to $50k or about $20 to $25 per hour full time. They might live with 1 other room mate in a 2-3 bedroom apartment with an $80k to $90k gross income for their shared household.
There would be limits on inflation, monetary expiration, and economic price adjustments that are detrimental to households making under $200k and people with at least 5 years of full time employment would be guaranteed home ownership. Which might end up being a 2-3 bedroom apartment for single people or a 4-5 bedroom house for families with at least 1-2 children.
In January of 2027, most of us will need to start over from 0 or nearly 0 due to the recession, career gaps, employment gaps, lackluster educational programs, and switching job roles too often, a lot of times to completely different industries.
This gives us 8 quarters over a 2 year period to make enough money so that we can plan the rest of our lives.
Robotics are important, software automation is important. Overall, 8 Billion people can not survive without manufacturing, logistics networks, and energy facilities unless we reduce our daily activity to mostly sleeping and our food consumption to child portions of less than 1200 calories.
While people do need to reduce the amount of food, nutrition science is examining smaller portions that provide more energy, less fatigue, more fullness, and more time in between meals.
This is not necessarily bioengineered foods, its mostly changing diets to foods that allow longer times between meals without sacrificing energy, muscle build, and cognitive processing abilities.
What will the economy look like starting in 2027?
Social media and technology will likely go on a backburner with Social Media being regulated by sociologists. IT projects will likely be minimal with old IT companies getting their jobs back and needing little help. Focusing mostly on new workers that want to take over a company or work for at least a 4-5 year period with preference for an 8-12 year commitment after passing initial assessment.
There will likely be few cybersecurity projects, most of the funding going towards the medical field and requiring qualifications in biology, neurology, human sensory systems, and computer electronics. Few people will be able to get into the industry with current programs and will need a degree in nursing and technology under current degree requirements. Most of this is projected to go toward job training and reformed school programs that integrate human biology to their computer studies.
Banking will focus on economics, and there will likely be room for finance as most people wont be able to afford anything. They may also need anxiety treatment over the amount of their loans which may seem high at first but should be manageable once they get used to the lending formulas.
Entertainment will fill in gaps with boredom, but will also manage activities during peoples time off from work. The goal is that they will be able to rest during time off and to select from a menu of activities when they are done resting but before it is time to go back to work.
Other industries that will have economic activity will include agriculture, construction, travel, job training, and build your own business services which may spur additional economic activity and provide contexts for import/export or new management scenarios.
As you can see the economy will not look like anything we've seen in our lifetime and that is a normal part of human progression. Some things will seem similar and job switching, which will likely be popular, should be easy to request and complete without any financial hardship.
The ocean exploration will mainly be for salinity, buoyancy, depth, friction, and drinkability. There are theories of fresh water ponds underneath the surface and we are unsure of how this interfaces with our ground water if at all.
The new economy will be highly scientific and in a high compliance environment to reduce the risk of human injury and to increase the chances of human success.
