So, predictions. If I am correct that all the social ills and psychological and behavioral problems of our time is primarily caused by overpopulation and life being too easy for generations at a time, then there are only a very small number of possible future outcomes.
The first one that a lot of people will probably jump to is that we simply wait for the boomers to die and then everything will be fine after that. Not going to happen. Things always change, and always towards the left over time.
Other than that, the only option is a violent reduction in numbers. War, pestilence or famine. Given the current understanding of the amygdala, war is most likely to come in the form of a soviet-style collapse. The states will continue to become ever more tyrannical until we have an economic collapse, which will result in lowered food production and a lot of dead people.
So if soviet conditions are the most likely near-future outcome, what to do about it?
Flee. Simple as that. If you stay, odds are you will be locked up or have all your property stolen or simply end up shot. Let the disease burn itself out, and when the rebuilding begins in 10-30 years it might be time to come back if you feel like it by then. But staying through it is simply too dangerous and there is no reward.
On a side note, I have gained a new appreciation for the importance and role of religion during these studies. Maybe a topic for another time.
While I might agree that reduction of populations could be one solution, I'm not convinced it needs to be war, famine and disease that does it. What if the other option included wealth and education redistribution which ultimately resulted in the same. (John Calhoun's rat experiment) A voluntary or subconscious participation in depopulation could leave our hard fought infrastructure intact where war likely would not. The constant threat of war plays an important role in our eventual decision to choose another option but failing this, war is ready. I choose plan BTC

... total household debt increased by $32 billion (0.2%) to $13.54 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2018
 Everyone is drowning in debt because people aren't being paid for what they produce. Time to tax the billionaires. Billionaires repeatedly put their money at stake for returns. "Everyone" else is staking their money on iPhones. So fuck off you filthy thief.

According to HuffPost, on average people spend about $650 on Alcohol every month. That means if you cut your drinking habit by 50% and spent the money you saved on #Bitcoin, you could invest $325 or about .08 $BTC, at these prices, monthly. In 12.5 months, you’d have 1 BTC. 💡 https://twitter.com/mrmichaelnye/status/1105227653257314304?s=21But but what about me saturdayzzzz ?? Fucking filthy Billionaires are to blame for average people not building wealth. Tax them and corporations, that provide us with everything we use in our daily life, to death!

Bitcoin & Blockchain Adoption Will Be a Lot Faster Than The Internet Boom of 90’shttps://blockpublisher.com/bitcoin-blockchain-adoption-will-be-a-lot-faster-than-the-internet-boom-of-90s/-Jack Lu, founder of Wanchain, certainly thinks so: “We are at a similar stage as the internet boom back in the early 2000s. Right now the whole industry is trying to build real world applications with increased funding. I think a life changing disruption would be a lot faster than it was back in the internet world. The reason is blockchain deals with two type of things: data and assets, which is also a form of data. Since these things are already digitized or about to be digitized, blockchain will gain traction a lot faster.” ... “Majority of financial assets are already digitized as they are in some form of data, like in banks. Putting them on blockchain and building applications such as smart contracts and decentralized applications will be a lot faster this time around than the old days of internet that revolutionized pretty much every industry.” ... -Maxine Ryan, co-founder of world’s first cash-in, cash-out blockchain remittance platform Bitspark, pinpointed how the data storing capability of blockchain technology can be utilized. She said: “I think that there is definitely space for blockchain to be adopted in areas where the technology itself can be treated essentially like a database, and in every single infrastructure built in many different verticals, a database is needed.” ... “I think it’s unfortunate that when the market is hyped, it attracts bad actors. At such a time, the market can make irrational decisions. I believe that investors should have sufficient knowledge of the field and understand how to do due diligence before they invest.” ... “I always take internet as a history book. Initially, people termed internet a scam back when it came out. In the second stage, some use cases were proven that revolutionized everything and in the third stage, the internet was everywhere. Same will happen with blockchain technology. It will be incorporated in pretty much every computer, mobile phone and pretty much into everything that has digital data. People wouldn’t even think that there is blockchain technology working inside every device, just like people don’t think about the technology behind internet.” It probably wouldn't hurt to make a distinction between Bitcoin [as SoV, MoE, UoA] and general Bitcoin adoption. Blockchain will penetrate society very fast and make legacy finance vastly more efficient. The former however could either precede, move along, or lag behind in pace. Possibly quite substantially. My hunch is that it'll lag behind, because banks and governments will be flailing around and the average person needs daddy government to tell them it's all going to be okay.

Billionaires don't create wealth. They hire people to create wealth and then underpay them. That underpayment gap has become obscene.

Want to share this for everyone. This is really good for risk management. snipped images
Concept is OK, but % wise I would never use these numbers as they are skewed toward less quality. I only invest in what interests me.

Billionaires don't create wealth. They hire people to create wealth and then underpay them. That underpayment gap has become obscene. Smarter billionaires are starting to realize that they need non-pauperized public/middle class to sell the products to. This is how they make their money, mostly. If everyone is poor, except a small %, then there is no mass market. The question is how to get from here to there. A peaceful small redistribution (not 70% of course, could be 1%) is much much better (as a principle, not in practice) than something worse, although I have NO trust in any politician and don't see anyone with enough 'balls" to pull this off. The alternative is much darker, and I am not talking about riots, but a possibility of Homo sapiens subspecies emerging, "Citadels", etc. A split between super- and sub-humans. Once it is partially genetic, there would be no passage back. I am currently reading the third Harari's book (21 lessons for the 21st century), which touches on these topics and this book is much better than the second one (first was good too).

[snip] Thanks Mr. MicG  I'm not sure but I think it might have something to do with the sleep deprivation I experience regularly while working night shift. I find myself in a dream state as soon as I close my eyes some days. Up to a point, sometimes sleep deprivation can be it's own reward. Or at least that's what we said when I was young...
