What is going to happen around the world?

       Including the new world USA...

            First the basics.

            Things will be different in 2028 than it is today.  That's a no-brainer. It's how we get there that is debatable. And millions will die along the way, like way more than normal. What a shame it had to happen. The status quo is changing, thank goodness, but nobody wants so many people dying, too, including our relatives, often even ourselves.

            And a century of progressivism in the USA, and nation-states throughout the world are failing, and we humans will find a better way to be ruled. Even old ideas like some present leader's version of royalty will be replaced by a better way.  And while Rush Limbaugh in the USA may mention an overthrow, I suspect it will be a soft version that leads to the change that people will support. Yep, the times they are a'changing ala the old Bob Dylan song.

            People will keep voting for change in most places, though more violent means may have to occur in some places to cause the coming change that seems so necessary just to live and have a Family. Even those all seeing (in their minds) leaders  (and some are just selfish) will have to adjust to what the people want, vice their vision of what is best for we vassals. Otherwise they will go away, too. And what the people want is pretty simple to me...like food, shelter, and clothing. That's it. Deliver that and one may have come up with a good way to rule.  The catch is that it cannot be individual based as that comes and goes as we humans are, though that is what often happens. I think of Ataturk in Turkey as an example. Rather "systems" to rule will continue to evolve around the world. For example, China has a long history of not being able to rule itself as a large state, so expect it to devolve into some kind of fiefdoms and warlords.

            I expect the mass movement of people to urban areas (presently something like 87%) will continue. But I also expect those remaining who still grow our food and provide our water and energy on the large majority of our land will have ever extending political power. What's new? And along that line, expect more people to flock back to their religions. The present problem of losing worshippers will be replaced by how to manage all those coming back. I don't think a new religion will evolve (though some may)...rather we'll use the religions we have as they are pretty nifty to we humans in providing comfort and help.

            I also expect the era of using laws to correct try our human foibles will come to an end. The alternative is called values, customs, and standards...all things we learn not in school, but at home. The obvious example is the Golden Rule question that permeates all religions...like is this right? And one can expect our present "government schools" in the new world USA will revert to basic education, like the 3 R's as a start. All of us love our children and want them to succeed in their lives and their Families.

            Will we have wars along the way?  Probably. Some thing's are worth fighting for and against, like a dam that cuts off water for some Families and supports other Families. And then we can also expect some regional despots to ruin things for the rest of us. It has happened before, and will happen again. What a shame.

            Last in the USA, will we have the same representatives ruling us in 2028? I doubt it. Many will go away from age, but many will also be replaced by others as we change how we are ruled. And how we are ruled is both reinforcing what we have, and changing what needs change. Some would call that the amendment process to our USA Constitution. Some would call it the vote. Some others would call it revolution, or civil war, or whatever.

            And last in the world, will we proceed towards some kind of "one world government"? I doubt it in the next 15 years. Maybe in the next two centuries. In the meantime I just want to live for me and my Family. And I don't perceive a one world government as being to my advantage.  Can it be imposed on me...I doubt it. I almost feel like an Asian in this regards. Like I will smile and say "yes sir", and then do what I think is best.

            And one more last; one can imagine many human diseases reemerging that may erupt into pandemics that affect us all. So be it. We did it to ourselves if this comes to pass.  Imagine even a nuclear war, with all the down range impacts?

            And along that line, will that have beneficial effects for our human race as billions die. I would say yes; but I sure wish I could use some of the alternatives available to us, too. Like I still can influence my future somewhat, and not die along the way.
