U.S.A. to disappear in 50 years, Saffo predicts

"There's less than 50% chance that the United States will exist by the middle of this century. And that is actually a good news. If the previous century was shaped by nation states as the primary actors of international law. What is very clear, at least to me is the central actors, locus of power and economy and control, is shifting from the nation state to city state. Like Singapour, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles... California in some level is independent". Saffo went on to give examples of recent decisions of Governor Schwartzenegger in direct opposition of President Bush policy: by not sending the California National Guards to protect the Mexican border or California's accord with the UK on climate change. Unthinkable! "City states are the centers because they are large enough to have impact but they are small enough that everybody sees the collective consequences of individual actions".

paranoia: How do you know we are not at the extreme of a trend that is about to head in the opposite direction?

I don't really agree with this guy's observations, if anything America is far more federalised than it has been in recent years. The Bush administration is all about a war machine bureaucracy.

O god I hope that never happens. The only reason Europe made the Euro is because it was retarded to travel half an hour and have to switch currencies. It'd be like all the states having a different currency. USA and Canada already have an open border but Mexico... god we need to fence them up and charge the Mexican gov. for every illegal we find, that'll make them up their border patrol you know? Nothing like a little bit of money to change someones views.

Gee, Cal-Trans better watch their retirement fund investments, Speculation? Also Cali better figure out how to spend less than they produce. What is it, 15 billion shortfall since June? Maybe a 'windfall' profit is headed their way? No, that would be very politically INcorrect. Federal Government Bailout, that's the answer...yeah that'l work.... Well won't it?
