your predictions for 2009

Published Dec 31, 2008

Happy New Year GOLO!

With 2009 right around the corner, let's make some predictions that we can come back and revisit this time next year next. 

You pick the topic. The economy, politics, crime, education, a lottery win, GOLO...anything you wish. So go for it. 

I will post the predictions one year from today so we can see how many came true.

 

I predict that we will have 20,000 GOLO profiles and SueDonym will still be the top GOLO poster of all time! I also predict that three major newspapers will close up shop and become online only.

 

What's your 2009 prediction?

The economy will pick up just not much, Drought during the summer months, and the another wet winter.

At least one major automaker will go bankrupt, sending unemployment over 10% nationally, and taking the Dow below 7000. We will still be in recession at year end.

I predict as well that people who are pushing for benefits or entitlements or privileges to be rights will be shamed and shunned both in public and on blogs around the world.

Benefits such as health care will still be benefits, and not rights. Entitlements such as Medicare and Medicaid, Welfare and Social Security will see severe cuts, endangering if the programs stay around much longer. And those who believe that anything that is a privilege will be shunned when gay marriages start failing, and the two who are getting a divorce start screaming that it is not fair that they have to sell and give their now most hated wife/husband 50% of all that they posess.

They have already started screaming the F word in states that have these marriages that it is not fair that they have to give up 50% of their possessions because of the failure.

I think anything gay, anything Politically Correct, and one way tolerance will be squashed in 2009.

I predict the Cubs WILL NOT win the World Series next year.

See? This ain't so hard...

Big Corp Bailout will cause tremendous credit failure for average taxpayer because they will still owe money to the Big Corp Criminals that started all this stuff.

War begins in Israel involving Palistine, Iran, Syria, and with the help of Russia. USA will be asked to make a stand by its long time friend and will turn them down. Obama will refuse to assist Israel with military support and Israel will defend itself,as a last resort, with its nuke arsenal.

I predict that after the government has given all the money to private big companies that they will find this solution does not work and that by the end of 2009 we will be in a bigger mess than we are today. I predict a serious eathquake in california this year.........I also predict that Iran will raise it's ugly head with Russia's support............

I think these folks who are predicting presidents death and such better be careful! I know change will happen this year weather its good or bad is to be determend! I cannot wait till obamma is in office! Change needs to come! Tired of the same ole same ole! I hope we get snow as others have predicted! Much Love IN 09~

My prediction...Death and MORE TAXES!

6+ inches of snow in NC before the end of January.

A funeral for another president.

The beginning of another war, this time on US soil.

I predict Roy Williams and Butch Davis will come out of the closet as lovers.

That someone in family will die this year - it did snow in New Orleans my aunt sent me pictures - 4" and it also snowed in Baton Rouge west of New Orleans. doubly whammy. bad news for the east coast. It has happened 3x before. When my grandmother, and both my grandfathers died.
