1. Technology: Impossible to predict at this point. However, I expect to see more OLR and facial recognition advances, and even further increases in getting your cell phone and laptop to gather information on you.

2. Economy: I expect the bond market to go ass over teakettle somewhere in March, due to people being dumb again. Brexit will do a royal job on Europe, China, and the US. The American farming sector will almost entirely consist of major agri-firms before October.

3. Society (US): The division between left and right will get even worse. I expect random acts of violence, starting from the extreme right, and escalating from both sides.

4. World: Iraq becomes West Iran. The Ukraine gets absorbed by Russia. Syria cleans out everyone they don't like with the aid of the Russians. The UK circles the bowl, with Johnson's crowd blaming the hard Brexit and its economic fallout on the fact that Brexit took too long.

5. Wildass: Far more civilian spaceflight.
