Delmar's U.S. political predictions for the next 12 years.
The following predictions have nothing to do with who wins the 2012 Presidential election.
Homosexual marriage is a done deal in all 50 states. So called conservatives might pull off calling it domestic partnership, but it will have the legal equivalence of marriage.
Single payer health care will become a reality, including low cost taxpayer funded abortion on demand.
12 years from now the US economy will be worse off than it is today.
Reading some portions of the Bible on radio and TV will be outlawed as a hate crime.
Gun rights will be the last conservative political stronghold. Assuming that the US still exists it will continue to be legal to own a handgun in all 50 states.
Nice post. if I could give you CP I would!
I think you are being a bit partisan in your views. Here is my prediction:
Severe drought and flooding will diminish the US food supply and cause large scale homelessness (see Dust Bowl)
Water will be 2x the cost it is now.
Politically, the GOP will be no more and the Democratic party will become the Latino Party (imagine the Donkey with an sombrero). There will be 2-3 conservative parties. There will also be another party that is a moderate non-latino centric party.
I too believe the Single Payer option will be in effect.
Chinese will outnumber Latinos in immigration.
US manufacturing will make a comeback as Import taxes make it more profitable to make products here.
Large scale Cyber Terrorism will be a weekly occurrence.
Anonymity on the internet will be a thing of the past.
Gated neighborhoods will be guarded by armed security personnel due to large crowds invading and pillaging them.
The education system will be worse (if you can imagine that)
The banking industry will be a shadow of its former self.
Privacy will be a thing of the past as technology will be able to see what you are doing, even taking a poo.
Drugs will be decriminalized because the US will no longer be able to afford it.
The Catholic church will be diminished as fewer and fewer follow them.
Tom Cruise will be the Leader of the Church of Scientology.
