Its 2014, shouldn't we be having flying cars by now? I am 20 and I grew up on a whole lot of science fiction. I was hoping that by now we would be having a lot more science fiction technologies around by now. I read a lot of old magazines and articles from the 1950s and they thought that by now there would be flying cars, robots, moon cities, underwater cities, jetpacks, hover boards, virtual reality, holograms, space exploration, food pills, and many other technologies. And all we got were video games, HDTVs, smartphones and laptops, The Internet, Computers. Why did the real world turn out to be less amazing than what science fiction futurist were speculating?
