All education and employment will one day be online.

Not because they are good ideas (though they may be), but because they are the inevitable result of a growing workforce and cost cutting.

If I'm at home, I'm paying for my own electricity, heat, housing, and digital connection (whatever that means 100 years from now).

It also means I don't need a car to get to work, pay for gas or spend time in traffic.

Traffic accidents also decrease, as do road repairs and other related costs.

If a person or school or business believes it can get enough productivity out of that arrangement, it's a no-brainer.

Classrooms and offices will always exist, but they will eventually be for the elite.

It will come with some cost - interpersonal relationships, opportunities for advancement, accurate labor billing, cafeteria sales - but it will come nonetheless.

For most of our lives we spend whatever free time we have on whatever we like. Honey Boo Boo. Pizza. Sleeping.

Only when you age to the point where you realize time is finite and you won't get it back do you think twice, and often make a different choice.
