4 Ominous Social Trends That Will Shape Our Future

when between who of where there versus to for up much while who are but yet into

We've touched on this before , there's a strong sense in much of the developed world that we're headed for harder times . Deficits increase . Unemployment rises . The benefits the future have been unevenly distributed throughout society .
It is not just in voting patterns that you can sense malaise . You can see it in the economic numbers and in sociological research .
Here are four examples of how angst in the developed world is morphing ominous trends that will have a profound effect on our economy and future .

Anxiety Takes New Forms

Angst manifests differently in different countries . Think of Japan :

Recent research by the Japanese government showed that about 30% of single women and 15% of single men aged 20 and 29 admitted having fallen in love with a meme or character in a game ? higher than the 24% of those women and 11% of men who admitted to falling in love with a pop star or actor .
The development of the multimillion - pound virtual romance industry in Japan reflects the existence of a growing number of people who don't have a real - life partner , said Yamada . There is even a slang term , ? moe , ? those who fall in love with fictional computer characters , dating sims allow users to adjust the mood and character of online partners and are aimed at women as much as men . A whole subculture , including hotel rooms a guest can take their console partner for a romantic break , has been springing up in Japan over the past six or seven years . ( The Guardian )

Is it any wonder that there is a dearth of babies in Japan ? Young British women are literally 20 - times more likely to have a pregnancy out of wedlock than young Japanese women . The cultural oddity of moepartially explains that fact .

Families Are Splitting Up

While looking up this topic , I found scores of just as concerning statistics .
For instance , the difference between the income and employment status of young males grew up in two - parent one - parent homes is stark . Especially you realize how fast the number of single - parent homes is rising .
Less than half of US children live in a traditional family setting , according to Pew Research .
Needless to say , what a profound impact this trend will have on US employment and household income .

Hope Is Different

In his first inaugural address , Franklin D . Roosevelt famously said , ? The only thing we have to fear is fear itself . ? In 1933 , that wasn't even close to true . They had to fear . The US was already in the throes of a depression that would only get worse . War clouds were forming across the Atlantic and Pacific .
Roosevelt didn't have all the right answers , but he did one thing very well . He gave people hope . My generation heard from our parents how FDR helped pulled them through those hard times .
Of course , he had one thing today's leaders lack . Television , talk radio , and the internet weren't always telling us how bad things were . We didn't know or care about the private details of our leader's lives .

Social Divisions Are Different

It has become clear we are breaking into tribes based on how we consume news . We get our news from people are often deep in the same ideological bubble we are . This only strengthens our concerns and fears .
If you think Donald Trump and Paul Ryan are taking us in the wrong direction , there are plenty of people who will agree with you and tell you so . If you think the people against them don't get it and are distorting the truth , a lot of sources that will back up your thinking .
We have always had polarization in our news sources . But it has never been so ubiquitous before . Or so extreme . The news has never been so readily accessible .
Numerous ? tribes ? can live in the same physical neighborhood , hear different versions and interpretations of the problems and directions in our country and the world .
There is no unifying national experience . Just a disjointed series of intra - and intertribal interactions .
