US government intelligence agencies see possible economic collapse, resource wars, the fall of America by 2030

General Ideas

The latest report from the National Intelligence Council explores megatrends that will impact America through 2030. The report is a jaw-dropper, as it openly explains that America will be overtaken by China as the world’s dominant economic superpower. It also lays out the likelihood of megatrends such as global economic collapse, wars over food and water, energy scarcity and the rise of the individual against the state.

The full report is available as a download from the National Intelligence Council website.

“In terms of the indices of overall power — GDP, population size, military spending and technological investment — Asia will surpass North America and Europe combined,” the report concludes. Rather than the world being dominated by a single superpower as it is now, China will be the global force to be reckoned with, it says.

The report also warns that if the U.S. government collapses or suddenly weakens, it would set off “global anarchy.” This is especially worrisome, given the accelerating financial debt blowout strategy being pursued by President Obama, who has added more debt to the federal government (by far) than any other President in U.S. history. Now at $16.3 trillion, the national debt is only accelerating, putting the nation on a collision course with certain economic collapse.

The rise of China has already begun

Just this week, China has been seen buying up key assets from the U.S. private sector. A Chinese firm recently won the bid for U.S. battery maker A123, one of the darling alternative energy companies highlighted by the Obama administration. Now, Wanxiang Group Corp. will be purchasing the company for $256 million.

Also today, a Chinese consortium group is purchasing AIG’s aircraft leasing business ILFC for a whopping $4.8 billion, giving China a ready network of private aircraft worldwide.

According to Reuters, China went on a “deal-making spree” in 2012, spending $56.8 billion on acquisitions. A Chinese company has also recently purchased a Canadian energy company Nexen for $15.1 billion.

Earlier this year, a Chinese firm also purchased the AMC movie theater chain for $2.6 billion, giving China near-total control over what movies are shown in America. This has already resulted in one striking piece of editorial censorship with the movie “Red Dawn” which was painstakingly altered to change Chinese enemy soldiers to North Korean soldiers in order to appease the Chinese government. If the film had not been altered, it certainly would not have been shown in AMC theaters, now owned by the Chinese. This is how communist Chinese propaganda has already reached U.S. shores.

We pay China to take over America

So the way this works is that Americans buy cheap plastic crap manufactured in China and sold at Wal-Mart, then China uses that money to turn around and buy America’s energy companies, technology companies and infrastructure hubs. Little by little, China takes over America’s economy and businesses. This is part of the strategy of how China achieves global dominance by 2030.

The rise of China is just of one the many trends outlined in the report. Also noted are the demographic aging of the global population, the continued rise of the population and the urbanization of the population (i.e. more people living in cities). The global population is expected to hit 8.3 billion by 2030, barring the release of a global pandemic which is also flagged by the intelligence report as a possibility. (They most likely know this because they are the same people planning on releasing a deadly pandemic bioweapon as a form of “population control.”)

Food demand will rise 35 percent by 2030, the report warns, and global demand for fresh water will rise 40 percent, reaching 6,900 billion cubic meters. This level of demand is simply not possible to meet with today’s water infrastructure, and the report predicts the rise of regional water wars in Africa and the Middle East, along with severe shortages in India and China.

The report also predicts that global climate change will cause increased radicalization of crops and food production, further worsening resource shortages. Whether a fluke or part of a large pattern, we have clearly seen radicalized weather in North America over the past few years, with 500-year droughts devastating the Midwest this year, and another 500-year drought slamming Texas last year. This has sent price shockwaves throughout the food and feed industries, and food inflation is on track to hit hard in February of 2013.

Also mentioned in the report is the “energy independence” of the USA, which is achieved by exploitation of the huge deposits of oil shale that have already been identified in America. The report concludes that this energy can be extracted in large volumes, returning America to complete energy independence. It does not, however, discuss the environmental impact of extracting and processing all this shale oil.

A tri-polar “liberal world order” with the USA, China and Russia

Some of the language of the report seems to point in the direction of global governance. The report often talks about a “Liberal Order” and “World Order” as if this is the default desirable goal of government.

The report assumes that cooperation among the three world powers — USA, China and Russia — always makes for a better future. It says that a strong USA is important for global stability and that a weakened U.S. government would foment global instability.

Nowhere in the report does it cover the U.S. government’s fall into tyranny and oppression via the NDAA, the highly abusive TSA, the rise of the NSA surveillance state or other areas of concern. Instead, the report supposes that China and Russia might experience a “collapse of authoritarianism” and become democratic partners with America. (And yes, America today has already experience a collapse of liberty!)

America is no longer democratic, however, even in 2012. Vote fraud is rampant, the money supply is controlled by a private banking cartel called the Federal Reserve, and the Bill of Rights has been obliterated by the Patriot Act, the NDAA and other oppressive laws enacted over the last decade. If China suddenly abandons authoritarianism, it will once again find itself opposite the United States which has now openly embraced it. America is emerging as the new North Korea. Not even in communist China do air travelers get sexually molested by government thugs before being allowed to board airplanes.

Questioning the National Intelligence Council’s intelligence

In summary, I have to question the intelligence of this report. It glosses over the real trends of the future — such as the rise of tyranny in America — while proposing many trends that don’t seem to line up with reality.

You’d be far better informed subscribing to Gerald Celente’s Trends Research Journal (www.TrendsResearch.com) which gives you an independent, well-informed look at what’s coming in our future.

InfoWars.com also has a far better track record of predicting the future than any number of government intelligence agencies. Alex Jones, for example, correctly and accurately predicted the attack on the 9/11 Twin Towers, months before they took place.

Government “intelligence” agencies have a highly distorted view of reality that comes from a grossly misplaced faith in government itself. Yet what we really see happening in our world is the global failure of governments across Greece, Spain, Japan, America and elsewhere.

The real trend for 2030 is the mass awakening of the individual as people come to realize just how oppressive and evil government has become. As that happens, the people of the world recognize that they have been abused, exploited and ripped off by the governments of the world. The People will rise up against corruption, private cartel banking, oppressive taxation and North Korea-style oppression of freedom and liberty.

That’s the trend the government’s intelligence groups will never see coming because none of them are in touch with real people who work for a living in the private sector (the real world). To work in government, feeding off government and promoting government delusions is to live in a total fantasy land that denies reality. Only those who work in the private sector have an accurate view of economic reality.

By 2030, the United States of America will have already suffered economic collapse and possibly even a popular revolt or revolution. Liberty will rise up against its oppressors, and the global banking cartels will either rule the world or their leaders will have been executed, depending on whether the People awaken in time to save their own futures from economic destruction.

The real trend of 2030 is that America is already an occupied nationruled and run by Goldman Sachs operatives which include Obama. Elite bankster insiders are attempting to take over the world, and they have already achieved huge successes in that quest across the globe. Can they be stopped before they destroy economic freedom and crush national economies? That’s the real question the intelligence agencies should be asking… if they had any real intelligence.

    Alex Jones cannot be trusted, there was a flash ad banner on Infowars.com in 2007 promoting the idea that the Apollo moon missions never did happen.

    New world order conspiracies discredit the real pressing problems of our time and the future.

    “possible economic collapse, resource wars, the fall of America by 2030”

    Anything is ‘possible’. And slightly amused that these Great Thinkers fantasize about three polar world of present day players US-15T, China-7T and Russia-2T, totally ignoring the gorilla in the room EU-18T, nuclear armed and that already has emerged as the economic heart of the world. But that’s OK, dreamers are harmless. These agencies should better worry about how Washington is going to manouver around the coming fiscal cliff, next month.

    It sounds like he is talking about race riots caused by peak oil.

    Interesting about the AMC purchase. That’s one of our main exports these days, Hollywood movies. Who doesn’t love Red Dawn?

    You have to question anyone, who puts a date on something. What makes 2030 so special.

    It is amazing how linear our vision of the future is and consequently how unpredictable the real thing is.

    When people think about it (The future) they look at trends then calculate a 3%, 5% or 7% growth line to see what happens. This process gives us an indication but it cannot become a prediction.

    To get a clearer picture, we would need to understand discontinuities such as wars, new technologies, alliances… Here’s a few ideas as food for thoughts.

    1 – May 2013, the US bombs Iran.
    It can go well and nothing much happens beyond a spike of the oil market or it can go badly…

    2 – Oct 2013, Combined Droughts in the US and China. Now there really isn’t enough left to feed the planet. Countries starts putting restrictions on exports making things worse…

    3 – April 2014, Russia signs a global agreement with the EC. opening the door for more energy flowing West and technology flowing East…

    4 – June 2014, A M 7.6 quake strikes just under Tokyo. “Only 25,000 people die but infrastructure is devastated. The city will need over 10 years to rebuild and the Government moves out…

    5 – Feb 2015, The Google glasses become ubiquitous. Now the world is divided between people who “see” virtual and the net 24h a day and those who don’t…

    And these are just a few examples of “easy” predictions for the next 3 years. Some are unlikely but none are real “Black Swans” from out of nowhere. Any of these would make the world a very different place by 2017, in just 5 years and a combination would transform everything drastically.

    What we can conclude is that the world, in a way has been extremely stable over the last 30 years with long term trends such as the rise of China dominating the landscape. Exceptions are the fall of the USSR and the sudden emergence of the Internet. This is very unlikely to stay that way and consequently the short term future will become more unpredictable than ever which also is what makes it interesting. (Apart from the fact that “it is where we will spend the rest of our lives.”)

    Arthur, the EU is a tribe of monkeys, not a gorilla…lol. They are currently squabbling over the last banana and who gets to be the new head chimp. The UE is the new Banana Republic where they change leaders like you change shirts.

    I watch it and laugh. Like the US, they think they run the world. But Russia, China, India, Brazil, Iran, Turkey, Iraq, etc. think differently and are waiting for you to fail so they can buy up anything left that has real value.

    This is the Century of the East. The West ruled the last one and made a mess of it. Maybe this one will be better?

  8. BillT on Thu, 13th Dec 2012 1:32 am 

    Ken, you are right on! There is a whole flock of Black Swans in our future, and trying to predict the world 20+ years out is like reading chicken guts. I could list a lot of things that are possible in just the next 2 years that would make all previous predictions totally wrong. A few are:
    1. Iran DOES sink a tanker or two in the Straight, cutting off oil for years.
    2. Another quake finishes the Fukushima drama by exposing the tons of fuel rods to air and a massive meltdown covers Tokyo with deadly radiation, killing thousands and closing the city permanently. Meanwhile the cloud heads for the West Coast of the Us carrying lethal doses of radiation to rain down on the US.
    3. The drought in the Midwest accelerates and there are no crops next year.

    I could go on as could anyone paying attention to world event. 2030? That is so far away that it may never happen. 2030 as a calendar date, that is. There may be no one left to note it.

    I remember hearing this same sort of crap about Japan in the 90’s. Back then amerikans were crapping there pants about how Japan Inc, would ‘own’ amerika. Japan didn’t end up fore-closing on the US like everyone back then every predicted was ‘inevitable’. Well, they did what they did, and world didn’t end, and amerika was still able to print enough funny money to pay for its bloated, terrorist military to harass and bomb large portions of the world well into the 21st century. Japan didn’t end up ‘owning’ amerika, and its doubtful China will either. China will do exactly as any other nation will, it will do what it needs to get the best possible deal for itself, or obtain the resources its needs, w/e. The US is still going to collapse, after that,

    Who knows….

  10. Arthur on Thu, 13th Dec 2012 7:07 pm 

    As DC says, nobody is going to own anybody. The US tries to, but it can not even own Afghanistan or stop Iraq from becoming an Iranian satellite. All the US does is meddling, paying foreign mercenaries to topple a secular ruler… so Syria will fall into the hands of fundamentalists and christians and shi’tes get cleansed, flooding Europe with even more refugees. And they create a huge Sunni fundamentalist territory from Turkey over Syria to Egypt, surrounding a certain ‘shitty little country’, as a french diplomat put it. Not that I care. Wonder what humanitarian interventionists are going to do about that.

    All of these scenarios are only slightly more plausible than the Zombie Apocalypse.
