In 50 years from now what is your gut feeling on state of the country? I am very pessimistic and see so many warning signs from the increase of socialist, islamist, and feminist movements that it will be very difficult to turn the tide.

Maybe I am on the wrong news sources and listening to the wrong ppl, so that is why I am curious to how others see it.

I thought you were going to say the latest Fox News Poll has Talarico +50 in Texas.

There will not be a USA.

And it will happen way before we get to 50 years from now. Unfortunately. It makes me terribly sad to think about it.

You may be correct. I am 57 and hope our way of life will carry on but have my doubts. I hope it makes it long enough to let me fade away in a country that I love and cherish.

I don’t have children
But I’m afraid many people my age’s grandchildren will have lives vastly different than ours

You commented with a "frick" so you gave at least one.

There will be a break away or full on civil war in my life time. I’m 50. There is no way to avoid it now it’s too far gone. When a city that was bombed TWICE elect the same type person to govern themselves with in a 25 year time frame the brainwashing has been completed. It’s breaks my heart but there is no other answer.

My baby girl is 24 and soon to be married. It scares me to death knowing I could have a grandchild having to grow up in what is surely coming.

I feel exactly what you said.

Unfortunently

I’ll be dead, the country will be under Sharia law, and all these highly educated liberal women will be wearing burqas.

I’m very bullish on the US. Short and long term.

Gen Z is unhappy and loud

Gen Alpha will be the pendulum that swings back.

Millennials have improved.

Need Gen X and millennials to hang around long enough to keep whiny Gen Z women from fricking things up.

Anything bad will be Trump's fault, even decades after his death.

No, there will be a USA, it will just suck.
1. Super corporations and the mega rich that run them will control everything, and I mean everything.
2. Assisted suicide will be legal
3. HG Wells will be correct. Society will form into two types of people, much like the Eloi and Morlocks, with the mega rich playing them off against each other for their own gain.
4. Other countries will completely change, politically and culturally, as hordes of Americans will move to Panama, Costa Rica and Canada and start to " Americanize " it.
5. California will become broke and dysfunctional, and will be overtaken by the strongest warlord.
6. Fast and Furius 75 will come out on Netflix, whose President owns half of America.

I think so much will depend on the next presidential election. If the good guys win, we should have a least 12 straight years of people at least trying to fix this shite. If the Dems win, they will usher all of this in times 10 and the country will be past the point of no return by the time it could be fixed.

Btw, good take but I hope I'm right here. This sounds godawful. But this is exactly what happens if America is still around.

I’m 68. I saw that we were going South 30 years ago. Noticeably. I’ll be surprised if we make another thirty.
