[friendowl]

its going to be a wild world

ignorance,violence,sex, are on the rise

[Anathema2121]

Meh, I give it about 8 years til earth is cashed.

[MastaChronic]

i vote there wont be a next 20 years, probably some kinda super virus that the US government created will get out and kill 99% of the poulation leaving only those lucky enough to be immune. or nuclear war will break out, or the world will commit a mass suicide because of all the dumb stuff thats happening...infinite amount of possibilites

[3rdEyeVision]

I dont even want to think about it really....california is gonna be scorching hot from greenhouse gases probably....guns and meth is gonna be everywhere, theres gonna be no racism anymore, people will drive every where, the average age of death will probably go down a whoile lot(especially with males), theres gonna be fast food restuarants everywhere, people are gonna have to "kill themselves" inorder to be a pro-athlete(snowboarding, skateboarding, biking etc.), Vancouver is gonna be 90% Asian, gas is gonna be almost un-buyable.....but Canada will still be all good lol

[iwantFUEGO]

i think as the years go by, more and more newer generations are less susceptible to higher control (government, religion) and there will be more free minded people.

with that comes "good" free minded people & "evil" free minded people...

We are definately going to see this in our lifetime so we must choose which we want to be.

[friendowl]

i see fat people

[LIP]

Hopefully someone of the younger generations will be in power and cannabis will be legal. And there'll be no war, either that or they'll have a mass war and we'll all die :D

[nuggetgirl]

I believe that to contrary belief..time goes on and this is my take on it.

I think that the world will get better. Eventually.....

A notable demographic shift will occur in 2010 as the youngest of the baby boomers (b.1945) will hit the united states legal retirement age of 65. This will continue on for some more time, until all the baby boomers have hit retirement age.

As the boomers retire Generation X will take rolls in middle and upper management.

As Generation X moves up to middle and upper management, Generation Y will take up positions in the lower half of the workforce.

Generation X will then age and hit retirement age and Generation Y will take upper management.

I think that when Generation Y is in the phase of life to take upper level management positions..(ecspecially in government positions) Will be the time that things start changing positively in the US.

Wow...that shit was deep. Now anyways owl, on a lighter note, my son's 5. I can't even imagine what he will see and sometimes feel guilty for bringing a kid into a fucked up world.

But the most important part of this is not to worry. Only care what you do and how you are. Enjoy life...and ignore all else. If you need to get away...you know where I'm at :)

Every generation, stretching back to the begining of human civilization, has had it's members who believe the world is coming to an end, that the apocalypse/second coming/gehenna/ragnarok/oblivion/acension whatever you want to call it, is just around the corner. These people are pretty much always wrong, and will continue to be. Don't ruin your lives over worrying about things that you have no control over anyway. Yes, we need to fix our mistakes and problems, the world is not in the greatest shape, and it is humanity's responsibility, ALL OF US, to do what we can to make it better. Global warming, AIDS, poverty, starvation, war, these are all things that at first, seem impossible to solve, but when you realise how far humanity has come since we first came together to create societies, you realise there is nothing we can't do if we fully commit our minds, willpower and endurance to it.

The world is always going through ups and downs, usually at the same time, but don't get bogged down with worrying about things. Stand up, contribute to causes you believe in, work to make things better, and live your life. We'll (and I mean humanity) still be here in 20 years.

I chose not to bring any children into this world. But I'm totally glad that other people are still doing so. That way, just in case civilization *does* collapse, well, we might need the kids for food. ;)

Hahahahahahahaha.
I hope they make a southpark episode outta that.....
And as for me.... MCDONALDS.
Where does Mcdonalds get their meat? KANGAROOS.
Kangaroos have pouches, pouches to hold their Babies.
And Babies? They have little pudgy hands.
Hands are the tools for evil,
Evil like Hitler, who ordered Genocide upon the Jews.
And Jews? Jews killed Jesus.
And where does Jesus work?
MCDONALDS.

Transportation
In 20 years we will have redesigned the car. Lightweight automatic Jetson cars fueled with shit will get us around. Personal flying machines. Automatic even. It's too expensive and too much responsabilty involved in driving.

American Economy
The whore shall sell, and sell and sell. The Chinese will buy and pretty soon we'll all be working at Wal-Mart. I predict in 20 we'll be seeing this in motion.

Drugs
We'll all be taking them daily by our 10th birthdays. Pharmacuticals will be driving the economy. They'll prolly merge with the health insurance industry and Hillary will establish free health care for everyone. Pot? Legal? Doubt it.

Health
Since 99.9% of us will be nice and medicated and obedient we will behave, eat healthy, live long, prosper, happy happy.

War
You know it baby. And that will be automatic too. Kids using Xbox's to navigate armed explosive drones--much cleaner than walking onto a crowded bus with a bomb strapped around your waist.

I dont even want to think about it really....california is gonna be scorching hot from greenhouse gases probably

The hole in the ozone layer should be completely repaired by 2025, do some research.

I think that the world will be much different.

The United States will have so many debts, that the interest on them will stack up, and other countries will stop borrowing us money. As unlikely as this seems, in the year 1900, Argentina was one of the richest countries in the world.

check out the movie soilent green
its an old movie
but it will make u think tho

[kknight]

Although I am just 23 and surely (hopefully anyways) have years ahead of me, my eyes have opened in the past few years to many things. This world is nothing like what you think when you are a kid and I almost fear for my future offspring. :(

[dryst]

i just wanna take my girl and a bag full of seeds up into the mountians and live out the rest of my life as horny little hermit...but then again i can never give up my dream of ruling the world, so itd never work...

[EversoHigh]

More stupid women using pushchairs in places there's no room for them. I was in Lille in france for a big market a month or so ago. Millions of people, so many in fact that just walking around was hard. Every hundred yards there's some silly bitch with a double pushchair looking really indignant that nobody's letting her to the front of the queues. Ban the fucking things.

i think, my generation hasseen enough fucked p shit and that once we are in control, we can make things right

[chris420]

Me twenty years from now? Probably making drugs by then... shhh

Actually all of those thing, i.e. global warming, war etc., i think are all because of how far humanity has come since we first came together. Everybody wanting power and control. OUr advances in technology are soon going to get smarter and smarter until the world becomes more like the movie Terminator 3. Dam im high
