If you had to describe what you thinks happens to America in the coming future and what would America be like 20 years from today (by the year 2044), what would you predict you'd see? Think of this as a time capsule and archive it from time to time.
 >>/50612/
What I predict will be an economic collapse following mass debt insolvency and governmental/political instability. I do not see America being able to sustain Trillions of dollars in additional debt every other month. Simply unsustainable and no amount of increased taxation and austerity measures would balance that kind of insolvent budget. Even if tried, the public backlash would cause a lot of anger, resentment and upheaval (much more than we see today).

I see America becoming very balkanized. I predict America will largely become a nation of hoods and abandoned ghost towns. I predict most areas will become third world with rampant squatters, marauders, drifters, hobos and militants struggling to survive. Whether you live in a major city or small town, the consequences of this collapse will spread everywhere, making every city and town look vastly blight and desolate. People will still be around but not the kinds of people we see today. Streets with consumers and shopping centers will be a thing of the past. You won't be able to tell much difference between a small town or a big city at that point. Suicide and homicide rates have already killed off a large amount of population. At some point, maybe by 2050, foreign countries like China will become interested in the colonization for former-US resources.
It will become a lot more chaotic, "everyone on their own" type society for the most part. Maybe there would be a few communities that band together and create a decent environment to live, but most will not be so lucky. Resources will be fought over as well, possibly land and private property too. We already know the massive squatter movement hitting lower class to middle class homes but this will likely increase and cause lots of hostility and inevitable lethal confrontations too. Future does not look good. Keep on eye on the city of Baltimore. If you live around that area now is the time to flee, consider that a life-saving heads up. ;)
