Do you think the future of American life is built on personal relationships or relationship with institutions? - Jeff - 04-30-2013 04:57 AM
Like, are my friends the people who define me or is it the sports team I cheer for, the bank I use, the church I go to, the businesses where I spend my money? Or, I know, my family, right? Well, what if I have no relatives? In a nutshell, what defines each of us?

According to most experts, the American future will rely more on personal relationships than on institutional affiliation. The reason: Social media. Through social media -- Facebook, etc. -- people will form networks with others who have similar interests. It will be the similarity of the interests that will be likely to define the person.
