History of the future

This is how The Jetsons have fared, 50 years later.

GOT WRONG (some can still come true)

Computers are huge and still use punch cards

Flying cars - we all expected those years ago

Apartments buildings hundreds of feet in the air

Women generally don't work

Rocking rogs rike Rastro

Jane doesn't seem to need shoes, but does mention buying them

No smartphones or other hand held devices


WHAT IS RIGHT

Talking computers

Flat sceen tv, even built right into the wall

Video phone calls

Most Pop music still sucks

People still toil for low wages while 1% get richer
