What do you think the United States will be like in a century from now?

@robertsnj so what in twenty than? I agree that 100 years is to vast a time.

@DarkHeaven the question is still too vast. I think the person who asked was being tongue and cheek as opposed to seroius. But if was a seroius question it is still too broad. For instance,

1 ) demographics, sub divided into types of education / race wealth lines ect
2) economics which could be sub divided by intertional / GNP and domestic / GDP
3) cultural changes (changes in values at a macro level )
4) relgious trends segregated from values and culture
5) technological and 25 years is still pretty far out for solid tech preditions)

and more it is just too broad and honestly i think this thread was set up for an introspection considering Mad Max was a proposal for a possibility

@robertsnj I wouldn’t even assume to know intent. That’s also pretty hard to try and know definitely and mostly just guess.

@DarkHeaven i would offer up i am not an authority but resources I think are sound are Pew Research / Zogby Internatioanal (book from them on this is "The Way We'll Be" I like the trend analysis in Mirco Trends by Mark Penn and E. Kinney Zalesne . Brooks and Aspen instutite may good sources for think tanks and the Economic Inst may be a descent source for economics. it gets labelled as left leaning but do does every economic group that rejects the Supply Side economic model. As I list these sources I would offer up I by proxy and so unqualied to tackle small pieces of this question but if i had to dig that is some of the places I would go to.

@robertsnj all good, and sources I use as well. Agreed.

@robertsnj To be honest, I saw the question on Reddit and it made a good discussion, so I decided to ask it here and see if it did the same.

@SubstantialKick I do think it’s an interesting thought exercise. obviously too many variables to predict with any level of anything even approaching any level of theorized accuracy, but it is an interesting question.
