Real soon, 2020 will be here...

...what can we expect in the 2020's, and will they roar bigger than the 1920's?

Given the status quo in the Western world I would expect China to increase market share and become more bellicose, possibly invading Taiwan, the European Union may stick together though stagnate, the USA and UK will become ever more divided economically with automation throwing millions into poverty and Russia remain nationalistic though relatively uncompetitive.

Television and films will remain of a shockingly mediocre standard..

Sounds like you think the future belongs to China. Probably a reasonable assessment.

I found this video informative on the subject.

I cannot wait to enter the Roaring Twenties of the 21st Century!!!

I wonder if Flappers with "Bee-Stung Lips" doing The Charleston will make a comeback?

Hopefully, October 29th, 2029 will be more auspicious than October 29th, 1929.

And will there be another ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment?

I'm looking forward to the Roaring '20s Part II. It'll probably just be more of the same but you never know. Maybe they'll ban alcohol again and it'll really get swingin
