Predictions:
- Civil unrest will reach a point of critical mass in the Middle East and northern Africa creating essentially a multi-nation international war between the ultra-conservative religious proponents and their detractors.
- the US will enter another war that will initially seem justifiable, but will ultimately be another complete mess, most likely with North Korea
- the US student loan bubble will burst, causing another massive recession and bank bailout scheme
- US Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will frustratingly lose the election in a very close race to a non-white Replican presidential nominee (probably Bobby Jindal) in 2016
- the US campaign election spending in 2016 will set a new record and result in the creation of a new Democratic political movement/sub-party populated by college-age students who run campaigns solely through free social media outlets
- 3D projection tablets will be the next big technological device revolution, projecting images that you can see without the use of special glasses and can interact with (but not physically feel).
- New research statistics on gun violence in the US rates will spur the government to propose stricter gun control laws, which will result in a huge uptick of reported incidences of gun violence.
- China's control and censorship of its people will laxen to the point that the "Great Firewall of China" will basically be completely arbitrary
- the US Constitution will be ammended to allow for gay marriage
- new anti-aging drugs will hit the market, extending life expectancy by 20 years
- CF and Dio's will still be around
