What will the world be like in ten years?

Question

What with rising gas prices and unemployment and food shortages.....Do you think it'll be better or worse?

Answer 1

They're just too many people on this planet with not enough jobs and resources to go around. I don't know what will happen other than things that are happening already right now escalating. I probably would see more civil unrest and people turning on each other. Maybe by ten years after some serious fighting the human population can drop to a more sustainable level and the remaining people learn to settle their differences and rebuild civilization from ground zero.

But perhaps I'm being too over dramatic though.

Answer 2

a h**l of a lot worse

Answer 4

The world will end in 91/2 years.

Good luck.

Answer 5

Gas prices are slowly going down, although, I don't think they will ever reach down to what they were ten years ago. I think our economy is bad right now but I think it will get better. Sometimes we go through tough times but we always come through in the end.

Answer 6

definently worse... the UK and the USA's economies are collapsing - we are 2 of the most powerful countries in the world, unless a miracle happens... we, at least, are doomed!

Answer 7

Probably more screwed up than what it is now

Answer 8

We will all be mindless consumers who achieve there morals from reality television.We will be to preoccupied with our own self satisfaction that we not see the world crumbling around us.

Answer 9

Worse.

If its even around for ten more years.

Answer 10

hopefully they will solve the gas situation by then. new jobs will be available because new fields of employment will be discovered. also our science will be able to produce some new genetic food cycle that will feed the hungry. but that is just thinking positive

Answer 11

We have to change our way of living............and do only the necessities........

But, I already have done that my whole life.

Now, I have to cut back even more.

Answer 12

Did you see Wall-E? the movie? I imagine it will be like that just a world covered in trash and the like. Unfortunately it doesn't look bright.

Answer 13

I agree with Daniel A =] no one knows, it depends what happens in the future and whos president. like u dont know if youll need a tooth pulled at the dentist, its just like that!  

Answer 14

I'm christian so i'm not that worried,but you never know.Generations have been saying that for centuries.Good for some,Bad for others.

Answer 15

Worse for manners but better for technology.

That seems to be the trend. The more advanced we become, the less proper we are.

Answer 16

Gas prices are decreasing. Down almost 20% from only a month ago.

Unemployment is still very low. 5.7% is nothing.

The food shortages are the result of land being diverted to Ethanol use. That will go away.

Stop being such a pessimist.  

Answer 17

Well, if the 2012 prophecy actually comes true, we won't be alive by then. However, I'm assuming it'll be ten times worse than it already is now. Technology will drastically increase, but so will gas prices and taxes. In religious belief, however.. within four years, we will be going through our golden age. Meaning the human civilization will be filled with love.  

Answer 18

ten years?...i dont really think its gunna get annnyyy better...but i could care less, im a christian and my conserns arnt with the world.

Answer 19

If we all stay positive and help, instead of making it worse things should get better.

Answer 20

Lets see whose voted president first!  LOL ;)

Answer 21

let us think about it.

they always call it the good old days, don't they.

so in ten years it will seem worse, and ten years later it will seem worse.

Answer 22

The same as it always is . . . better for some, worse for some..

Answer 23

like this.........

...........sorry!

Answer 24

Everyone will be China's b*****s. Why the **** are we destroying our economy to fund a pointless war while China is getting so much stronger. Think WW2, tons of countries ruined their economy paying for the war, and the USA came in at the end so we did not. The Bush administration is idiotic and McCain wont be any better. How could he possibly bring our country out of debt when he wants to continue with all of Bush's current policies and stay in the war "as long as it takes" You cant fight terrorism. It's a state of mind not a group of people. We are only fueling more terrorism.

Answer 25

The world will probably even fatter and lasier with all the new technology that's coming out.  I have no idea about conflicts, but I think there will be less casualties since planes no longer even require pilots lol.  Seriously though, technology 10 years from now is going to be some amazing ****, but i still don't know, so I'm gonna say it won't be better or worse than today.  

Answer 26

lol

aparantly the earth is to end in 2012

good luck and RUN LIKE h**l!

Answer 27

Its just gonna keep getting worse and worse....

Answer 28

A lot more connected online.  More wars, but more people talking.  There's a big shift happening -- old school is "we're a country and we have to protect our borders"; new school is "we're a planet and we can share ideas and be friends with anyone".  Those are fighting -- actually, the old school people are fighting because their way of life is falling into history.

Answer 29

actually gas prices are going down. and food shortages are just because all the obese americans are taking all our food!!! lol that was horrible or me

Answer 30

Have you ever seen the movie "The Road Warrior"

Answer 31
