Thats what you get for skimming. Take to the time to read the entire thing, digest it, recheck your facts. Yes, I am sticking my neck out on this. Feel free to come chop it off in 3 years if we don't hit a depression, if my predictions don't come true, and if my estimates in the chart don't come true. At that time I will be happy to tuck my tail between my legs and you can throw pie in my face. I wrote about what is happening now in 2006, new president with new movement, redistribution of wealth coming, and old media going away. (www.flairjax.com) you will have to search for it. Again, I suggest stop skimming and read the entire thing. Let me break it down for you since you like bullet points. I will talk slowly... Hoover deported Mexicans. Bush would have but they didn't want to lose the election so he built a fence (billions in $) so it is a major step up from Americans just complaining about Mexicans. See my comment above should have been 'upheld' prohibition not 'passed' my bad. Yes, generations are continuous, but those in power and those industries created and run by Idealist Generations, such as railroad owners, newspaper owners, etc don't have all the power and money. Why do think blogs are struggling? When newspapers die blog will take their place and skyrocket. Just as the automobile did against the railroad. Maybe if you slowed down you might actually learn something. Your opinions aren't facts. Yes, I have my opinions, but they are supported by data. Where is your data? So all these numbers are just one big coincidence? Come chop my neck in three years if I am wrong its sticking out on this one. Go ahead mark your calendar!

- I agree that a depression is likely, but that doesn't change any of the things I pointed out. - None of the stuff you mention is specific enough to constitute a prediction. If Bloomberg had won in 2008, would you be talking about how this represented a "new movement"? What about Huckabee? Edwards? - Hoover did not have the constitutional authority to end Prohibition; the 18th Amendment could only have been repealed by another amendment, with the consent of two-thirds of both houses of Congress and three-fourths of the states, as indeed happened in 1933 with the 21st Amendment. - Blogs are not struggling; they are growing exponentially (http://econsultancy.com/blog/092-surge-in-blog-statistics-as-medium-goes-exponential http://econsultancy.com/blog/092-surge-in-blog-statistics-as...). - What numbers? The only numbers in your comment are "3" and "2006".

  - Its a prediction because I say it is. That is why I wrote it. ( will update it to be more specific) - You just proved my point nobody would have beat Obama (read the article again) it was because the civic generation made it so. - You are correct he didn't have the authority, but he backed it and his counter parts during his election years said they wanted it repealed. Hoover didn't so what does that say about Hoover? - What do you consider not struggling? Compared to the billions newspapers make and the power newspapers have (though dwindling) they are struggling. Again read the article thoroughly (see the mention of Rupert). You need to slow down and not skip things. - The numbers in the article ( those things that aren't letters ) Also see the BIG graph.
