Most amusing, but probably not nearly “screaming” enough in the Alarmism Department. The year 2020 will see a remade world I imagine.

Jonesy55, if you spent more time reading, you might learn to spell gooder.

Is DIXIE the land of Johnny Reb or Farrakhan’s 5% solution in this yarn?

I’m offended by the term “Indo-paki.” Paki is a racist slur.

Russia is more likely to be carved out between an Islamic caliphate, rising out of theCaucasus,
and China annexing the western region. Russia and China, have intricate banking systems, that make our present predicament look transparent by comparison.It might more properly be addressed to the Okhonitsa, as they know her in back in Russia, dealing with such a collapse of two major regimes. You basically ripped off David Aikman’s dystopian tale and moved it into the future.

The posibilities of the future, good or bad, are endless. Lets hope we can survive & prosper. As for the various factions acting against each other due to cyber warfare, its already happening. Not to the extent we see in this satire, but its happening all the same. Maybe I’ll be lucky enough to have grown old enough & died before this mess comes to being!

BIG MEDIA: DISGRACED, DISCREDITED & DEAD
The heyday of electronic and print big biased media is over. The baton has been passed to the likes of PAJAMAS, making the future much more promising:

Stephen,

What can I say? That’s one of the many value-add services I bring wherever I go.

It’s just hard to appreciate satire that makes Russia look like a real villain when in 12 years they’ll be like an old man dying of cancer at the rate things are looking.

First I admit I will be the last person to ‘defend’ chicomms. But the devious side of me kept thinking IF I were Putin,….

On the surface, I will have the puppet president make nice with Ahmed (Iran) and Chavez (Venezuela), serving the purpose of red herrings.

The real objectives will be two prongs – (1) Covert actions will make certain Americans and Chinese are mad at each other. Any incident (on either side) will be blamed instantly on the other side per American-Spanish war model, i.e., making America/china the logical scapegoat; (2) Increase the russian strangle hold on europe to expand the empire.

Chicomms’ eagerness to be the next super power and their eventual need to find a foreign scapegoat play into my (Putin) hand perfectly.

Hey, maybe it’s even darker. You credit President Obama with a “tried to spend his way ou of the predictable Depression”. But if the destruction of America is the goal and he’s in cahoots with our ememies, we should all buy Spam.
When I hear fairminded people wishing the new president success I think–doing what exactly?
