Watch this and leave your comments.
By the way, I looked up most of those facts and they're true. :peace:
 
LOL, very interesting, but I find it stupid that it takes this video to tell people of the obvious/logical things that will happen, I have had many conversations with my friends about these sort of stuff back in around 2003-04(and I've never seen these kinds of videos, till now), I mean if you learn a little about history it will show you many drastic "Shifts" and the ones that will be happening in the future are nothing to be surprised about, well I have to understand that not everyone sit down and just start "Brainstorming" about everything that is happening in the world.

Obvious predictions are Obvious.
 
When I watch this video, thinking as an Economics major, I don't look at it as "obvious."
This video to me is depressing and embarrassingly true.

I really don't think what we have done can be turned around.

By "Economics Mayor" you are referring to our country, right?
 
No, I am going to school for a degree in Economics and Business Administration/Development.
I suppose since the Economy is so bad, I might have to move to India and start a business to make money...

My education is going to be pointless.

Look I don't mean to be rude in any way so please don't misunderstand, but it's because of that way of thinking, that our country suffers, why? because when the going gets bad the only thing that we think is how to withdraw and move somewhere else, well let me tell you that "IF" you where to build your business in India, you will not be trading what ever product/service to the people of India but to US and other countries that can afford it, now days everyone pulls aways their stocks from over here, and then we ask why is the country suffering, moving your business else where only brings problem to the country in question, not the country that you move in to, that's why I want to join the military, I can help my country and still work elsewhere, but it is necessary that our people keep business in our country and trade with other countries.(Not go to other countries and sell to us)
 
China and India will ruin in the future and The US is keeping failing so bad :S

It's a waste of my time/money to stay here and it isn't because of people like myself thinking of this that USA is in an Economic hole.
Businesses have left because of Government regulation and taxes. If they can pay someone 10 dollars a day, compared to 10 dollars an hour, to complete the same work...why not?

Two words describe a portion of why the Economy is so bad in America.

Greed and Stupidity.

I most likely won't leave, but it's an option.
