The world is shrinking: Americans are coming increasingly in contact with foreign people and their ways via globalism and immigration.
I predict that this shrinkage is not a good thing, that it will cause conflict--indeed, it already has.
Lots of room between people makes better neighbors than fences can.

I think it is possible to argue that famines are man made disasters and not natural disasters. The inability for people to get food is probably due to idiotic economic policies like communism, rather than any lack of food on the entire planet.
People in capitalist societies do not tend to die from starvation en masse, if ever.
