In the near future, we will see brain scan technology that can determine, without fail, if someone is telling the truth. Shortly thereafter we will be able to buy mobil devices that perform the same task on the fly. In other words, we are on the verge of having all of our conversations constantly and instantly monitored for the veracity. This would then spawn a counter technology comprised of personal mind shields that keep oneself from being scanned ( the use of which would, Of course, imply that one is keeping secrets). The end result? Universal honesty, initially as a result of the duress of surveillance, will become the norm. Then, over time, this mode of thinking, communicating, and behaving will become second nature. This will usher the dawn of a new civilization. After thousands of years of human suffering, world peace and the long-fabled good will toward all men will have finally arrived. The end of lying and cheating!!!
