Solution: Break up North America into four new countries.

This is probably the only solution, but I can't see it happening without catastrophic and very immediate conflict.

There was a cheesy science fiction movie from the 80's that has a fix for the conflict. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102800/

All conflicts are resolved by fighting matches between giant robots.

Saw that.  It was TERRIBLE.

Which means, logically, it is THE FUTURE.

No, the future isn't that kind.  There will be no big stompy robots.

I can tell you all about the future, if you like.  I am, after all, a Holy Man™.

But think about it for a second. There will be stompy robots, but they will be DISSAPOINTING. So far, that's been my experience of The Future.

Last time you told us about the Future, I bled from my gums for a week.


Last time I caught my own glimpse of the future, I became a Discordian.

No, because there is no way giant stompy robots could be disappointing.

Instead, we will have movies about giant stompy robots (already happened), while small men and women do small things in an increasingly smaller world.  And then get arrested for those small things, after which they will do other small things in a prison call center, so they can buy small things at the prison canteen.  Which is also already happening.

The future is small.

Yeah. We've been on a slick downhill road to that - with no brakes - for some time. The momentum is off the scale.

The Socialists,Ayn Rand Capitalists,The South, and the other South. Anarchists would die immediatley from lack of growing up.

I see 15% total population wiped out. The other South eating the South, the capitalists selling weapons to the other South so they can wipe out the socialists, and then the capitalists enslaves the other South with super real super serious poor fucker dreams.
