Social turmoil on its way?

[cronus]

You've not factored in critical resource shortages that will increase with a ever increasing economy and the social chaos which would come with a ever decreasing one alongside the impossibility of stabilising the global economy with its innumerable variable factors, the effects of climate change also. The most that can predicted about tomorrow's world is that it will be (dis-?)similar to today's and very interesting if you can survive in it.

Who didn't factor those points in?? I mentioned them, albeit obliquely.

You need to bring in details. Without a clear map of the future anything could happen you realise?

[pErvinalia]

"clear map of the future". Ok, Nostradamus, you go first.

[cronus]

Start small when thinking about the future. A week at a time - not too much to ask since you started the scrying here. The lottery numbers for next week are a good place to start.

Even though the oceans are full of turmoil, you can still accurately predict the sea level.

Sometimes lots of turmoil has no effect on global averages.

So it is with global warming. The horrific effects of MMGW are everywhere you look. And yet the global temperature doesn't move. Funny that.

Fuck off to the appropriate thread, you anti-science sheep.

I have a solution.

Train them to be missionaries and send them to Africa.

Mistermack, are you actually proud of being that ignorant? Either it's an act, or you are the most consistently dumb guy who posts around here.

[cronus]

I believe in the global warming. That shit is real and that the looming nuclear war may be exactly what the biosphere at large needs right now (or not). Like my opinion matters?

I have a solution.

Train them to be missionaries and send them to Africa.

is it true that missionaries' balls taste of rancid butter?

[mistermack]

Mistermack, are you actually proud of being that ignorant? Either it's an act, or you are the most consistently dumb guy who posts around here.

Luckily for me, it can never be the second, while you're still around.
And I'm too dumb to keep up an act. So it's neither.

But of course, it was only a particularly dumb cunt who said it had to be one or the other.

[Pappa]

I have a solution.

Train them to be missionaries and send them to Africa.

But they'll be eaten by the natives!

[Blind groper]

I like the idea of a minimum income to everyone. However, the amounts mentioned so far are too small. $US 10,000 per year is ludicrous. $US 50,000 is more like what is needed. Bear in mind that the automation and roboticisation of society will involve a massive increase in productivity, and the wealthy who own those assets will have so damn much money that we could triple their taxes.

[pErvinalia]

But we can't, because that violates their alien natural gluten-free organic rights!!
