Hi
Could you help me get the meaning of the underlined part.
1. Our future is one of cameras on high poles, soulless shopping malls, children with idle hands and empty heads and enough dole money for booze.

Does it mean we'll live in isolation?

Thanks a lot.

I assume that it means that we will all be under constant surveillance by CCTV cameras. That's not too far in the future in the UK.
