2021 | Generational "benefits" war
|
|
|
Young people will rebel at paying taxes primarily devoted to maintaining older people living at a higher standard of living. As the cost of these entitlements soar, standard of living will collapse for people in the active workforce and I predict that this will lea to open rebellion in the near future. The current mechanism is unsustainable and unstable.
Additional contributing causes: - the expense of the entitlements causes jobs to migrate to foreign (cheaper) countries, further damaging the prospects of the working generation(s). - the payer for the system is never the beneficiant - people are only allowed to vote once they reach 18, but there is no age limit when your right to vote is terminated - as average life span increases and with population growth slows, the percentage of retirees in the total population soars. |

2021 | The death of CGI
|
|
|
After decades of computer generated movies, with even decreasing costs, a strong sub-culture of followers of pre-cgi movies finally makes a break through into main-stream culture and old school movie making becomes in vouge.
Advertisment has mainly moved into two different schools, the most popular is product adviertisment, and is also used for political uses, with popular series and movies as propaganda machines for the ruling political machine. The second is huge moving bilboards with personoalized commerlizal messages in smaller venues as sub-way stations, and huge short movies in larger venues.
And we still depend on fosilized fuel sorces.
Geo political we have three different blocks, the EC, the old USA, and the pan-asia block. both EC and USA has major trade blocks in place, making them almost closed. This is used as a last atempt at survival since the pan-asians focus on education has turned them into a technological superpower. |

2021 | UNA formed
|
|
|
as a result of the ten year anarchy, the united nations army is formed. drafting is made up from all members of the UN, who subsequently surrender all arms to the monolith . the sheer size of the army renders nationalism obsolete, globalism absolute, as no nation state now has the power to resist. |

2021 | More hydro than conventional combustion engines
|
|
|
The world federation on mobility announced today that the balance between cars that depend on fossile based fuels and the ones powered by fuelcells (or hydro-oxygen) has shifted towards the latter. This development started in the beginning of this millennium, but suffered a delay after the terrorist attacks of 2008. |
