Ten demographic trend shaping the U.S. and the world

Recommended Posts

No doubt you see trends in there that threaten your view of what America is and should be. Demographic shifts will change many aspects of the country. And the move away from Christianity will probably increase. So I understand that you are concerned.

But I wonder about the phrase you use,

Evangelism will have to become creative. And, we need to create more work in the U.S. to strengthen and increase the middle class.

A larger fear is the potential for social conflict between the Blacks, Latinos and Muslims as welfare funds shrink per class and neighborhood mosques increase. That to me is SHTF.

Yes, getting belief in supernatural beings out of government will be hard work, but necessary.

And reversing the shift in assets to those who are already the wealthiest will also require work.

1) big corporate taxes, no corporate subsidies... force corps to invest in themselves to avoid taxes. This leads to more productivity, more jobs more cash flow on the streets, more confidence in the economy.

A) simple consumption based taxes for the populous with non-taxed goods for basic needs... tax avoidance becomes simple, don't buy taxed goods. (similar to the TX sales tax system)

Or give everyone a "tax card." It works for the first $8000 a year (or pick a number) for necessities. (Or if you want to be fancy, break it down into categories - rent, food, medical care.) After that you pay normal tax.

I think anyone that earns more than say 3 times the poverty level should "donate" the rest to redistribution.

My apologies.
I assumed since you listed two races and one religion that you hate a rather even hatred for everyone not in your prepper group.
Your hate is disgusting and anti-American.
You really should look at immigration in this country, it's pretty much one of our founding principles.

***You forgot "the gays".
:S



How so? I don't see them as prone to violence.

Well, they used to get beat up quite frequently by fine Christians. If they hadn't been gay, those fine upstanding Christians wouldn't have had to beat some sense into them.

Clearly gays have been a source of quite a few violent actions.

I never knew you were a socialist.
Interesting.
;)



Yep - I just went to the Bernie camp.

That is my new mantra - modified just slightly, anyone earning more than 6 times the poverty rate - With the average poverty rate as - what - about 18000/Yr . . .

All them peoples be too rich, and need to give ev'thn' back to the gubmint.

6 TIMES the poverty level - they can afford to send everything over that back. Right?

Especially college professors and IT pros. Right?

It is what it is. I see approaching social breakdown. Look again at number nine. What do you think is going to happen when the Christians equal the Muslims worldwide? What about the merging of these two just in the U.S.?

This fits with end time prophecy. Christians are anticipating the rapture prior to this emergence.

We are getting ready to leave or defend ourselves.

Can I vote that you all just leave?



You most certainly can. We understand that we do not have allies. We have to protect ourselves, if it comes to that. Our blessed hope is in Jesus Christ. We anticipate the rapture before God's wrath. But, we do not know God's exact timetable.

Maybe Ala is the one, true "god".

Man that took effort to write.

Again, fuck religion. It's insanity.

The USA has always had people with this same fear of immigration impacting our way of life, yet that is what we're about. We accept people. Religion divides.

"Approaching social breakdown"????
Breakdown as Christians know it.
But a minor improvement as Muslims know it.

The book "The Upside of Down" suggests that society has two ways to handle change: A; Adapt to small changes
B; get how helmed by big changes.
IOW we can slowly adapt to the gradual demographic trends or we an be resists, then be overwhelmed by a tsunami of change.

Me, I am quietly stocking up on canned beans.

If you have. Deacon that constantly falls asleep in the weekly deacons meeting.

1) Have everyone bring extra clothes
2) After he falls asleep, lay the clothes out like you were wearing them.
3) Everyoe else hide outside the meeting room.
4) Blow trumpets really loud and wake him up.

If you want to see the future, come visit Vancouver.
Whites are barely in the majority, while immigrants from Asia now dominate several suburbs.
Chinese labourers built the railroad that connects Vancouver to the rest of Canada. Now Chinese-language signs dominate shopping malls in Richmond.

Despite prejudiced immigration laws, Sikhs have built dozens of temples. Yellow flags (flying above Sikh gurdwaras) are more common than (Christian) church steeples in many neighbourhoods. Sikhs do about 20 percent of the work at my company.

The most recent change was in my section - traditionally white - half the new hires are immigrants from the Indian sub-continent India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, etc.)

North Vancouver and Port Moody are dominated by Persians.

Canada differs from the USA in having fewer blacks and Hispanics. A group of Mexican-Canadian construction workers recently hung a Mexican flag from - from the newly-built Trump Tower in downtown Vancouver - to tease its racist name-sake!
Hah!
Hah!
As for blacks ..... you are more likely to meet a recent immigrant from Africa than an "Afro-American" born in North America.
As for the label "Afro-American" ....... most of those quadroons and I grooms are stretching the term so far that it becomes irrelevant.
Hah!
Hah!
If we just continue inter-marrying at the current rate, everyone will be some shade of "brown" in a few more generations.

WTF would anyone put that assholes name on their own project???:S:S:S
