AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Quite a future. Let's hope it does not come to pass.
lol a virtual screen Doesn't sound good. Great meme
What a frightening thought!
Hmm, yes, the population is getting older and fewer babies are being born to replace them.
Being a baby-boomer used to be fun. Somehow, it no longer is. But there are many younger people I trust, so I hope your prediction is fiction!

A real dismal view of the future - lets hop she's got her figures wrong.
This has a grain of truth in it as the members of the younger generation seem to be living more and more of a virtual life! Well done!
As one who spends hours at the virtual screen, I don't find that such a dreadful fate. :D
Thanks for a thought provoking mf.
Lots to ponder indeed ;-)
An interesting thought to ponder, a great take on this week's SY.
Ooh, I like this! Let's just hope it never happens.
You've managed to make your microfiction rather profound. Nice job!
