Global Report 2020

In the year 2525…
Well, not that. In the year 2020. See, the CIA does a professional forecast every five years, of the next fifteen. Thing is, they’re usually not all that accurate.

But this year’s just came out, so… any thoughts?
I’m still downloading the PDF, all I saw was the Executive Summary: Watch for Asia as being more important.

Me, I still say a China Implosion in the next fifteen years as the four… ten? to one male to female issue becomes critical. The only way to handle that sort of thing would be regimentation…
Probably a war there. But that’s just me.

Not sure why you think China will implode over the next 15 years. There is a male-female gap (more males than females), but it’s nothing close to a 10:1 or even a 4:1 ratio - more like 1.1 - 1.3:1 ratio. Which isn’t much of a difference; however, the diffrence needs to be looked at in the context of 1.3 billion people.

Anyhow, thanks for the link…
