The innate tendency of all living systems to continually re-assert homeostasis will see to it that the changing availability of various fuels and materials is met with complementary change in the factors influencing demand on an ongoing basis. Yet another tree will fail to grow to heaven. |

If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama
The trance-state of prophecy is like no other visionary experience. It is not a retreat from the raw exposure of the senses (as are many trance-states) but an immersion in a multitude of new movements. Things move. It is an ultimate pragmatism in the midst of Infinity, a demanding consciousness where you come at last into the unbroken awareness that the universe moves of itself, that it changes, that its rules change, that nothing remains permanent or absolute throughout all such movement, that mechanical explanations for anything can work only within precise confinements and, once the walls are broken down, the old explanations shatter and dissolve, blown away by new movements. The things you see in this trance are sobering, often shattering They demand your utmost effort to remain whole and. even so, you emerge from that state profoundly changed. |

Well looking at humanity now, the future could possibly be very grim or very hopeful. I believe if we decide not to destroy ourselves and actually decide to dedicate ourselves to progress over greed we will have a perspective that probably isn't imaginable as of now, or has been rarely had. Basically I think if humanity is to survive we will inevitably have a revolution of philosophy and radically change our perspective of many aspects of everyday reality that we take for granted now, aspects of everyday reality that we couldn't even imagine how we could or should radically change our perspective of. |

Extrapolating from current trends, I see things going one of two ways. |

I don't know which scenario to believe, yours or Hard_Wired's. They both seem so plausible. |

The world's first corporate-run government will be. They will be called the Caldari State. |

A more effective solution to nuking them is to simply conventionally attack them. The USA would be completley justified in attacking, and would garner the support of most if not all of its allies plus the UN; if combined air and navy forces took out critical targets such as airfields and oil depots, and of course any missiles. Then land forces (with support) could take it without an unnacceptable amount of deaths. Don't forget that the US has a sizeable military force in South Korea- it could be a perfect launching ground for a combined assault. |

Assuming they fire the first shot, I think it'd be perfectly justified, and most other nations would at least lend some support. And its a land war in North Korea, which pretty much everyone hates anyway, where the people are horribly oppressed, and where, due to the brutality of their leaders, are forced to obey. If we killed leaders they would be nothing but grateful. At least I would think so.. |

The most famous of the "classic blunders" mentioned by Vizzini in the Princess Bride - "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - was reputedly advice given by General Douglas MacArthur to President John F. Kennedy, in 1961. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...8225807AAXsURR |

Hmmm...well, global warming will be finally proven as a hoax, the market is going to improve during 2012 sales, when people are selling homes and purchasing, or the economy will plummet somuch that we don't even need money anymore. Nanotubes will be the future, we will finally make contact with aliens, and we will colonize on more planets. |

i think the future is looking good. we may end up going through some trials and tribulations, but it has to get worse before it gets better. |
