In fifty years time will Australians have moms and asses and buy cases of beer?

Or not be able to do simple maths?

In 2055 it will probably be Mt Everest skylifts and robotic accountants, who will decide the expense, lifting such a heavy object, is not worth the engineering effort involved in making it possible, worthwhile.

Regards,

ROFL!

Have you worked out what the OP was about?

Rega LOL rds,

In 50 years time, moms with asses drinking cases of beer will be living in the year 2065!

As opposed to having mums and arses and buying cartons of beer now? The Americanisation of planet earth getting to you Moby?

I did an airport pickup this morning and noticed something abit daunting. The sheer amount of developer advertising written in Chinese (not "american";). It's funny because while everyone is watching the left hand (America, Middle East, russia ect) the right hand ( china) is quietly taking ownership of the world, cunning.

I'm living in the past late at night..... sorry

My Internet connection was better in 2005 too.

All the same really, Chinese, American, English. If Americans were doing the same I would feel the same. I just find it interesting how some counties use war and others use $$$.
I heard a report a couple of months back that the Chinese government was asking the australian government to do something about the foreign ownership laws as they were concerned about the huge amounts of corrupt money from china was being invested in australian real estate.
What that does for future generations housing costs here (where we live) scares me.

yep, need to start teaching kids how to speak mandarin for employment prospects.
I remember KRudd was talking about it too on his first atempt to come back. I listened his speech on a radio.
Surly he knew something.

It is a bit amazing really. All this money that seems to be coming, apparently to park it, from a country which is meant to not have such a gap between the poor and the less poor.

Something's broken. I think stopping them investing the money outside China is not the actual problem.

I think the problem from their ( chinese government) point of view was they were trying to get the money back. If it was in china still they could just take it. Once it was overseas it was gone.

In 2055, mining we will be finished mining in Australia, the world will have realized that it's cheaper and less complex to mine in Africa.
White Australian will be even stupider than an episode of East Enders, waiting tables for rich Chinese middle class. Beer will be not be bought in cases, but in bottles. And those asses will be as smelly as they are now.

But in 50 years... everything will be fine again
