I disagree with the belief that gas prices will rise. I'm confident that with the removal of Biden's regulations, fees, and restrictions on the oil industry, we will become energy independent again and prices will drop to $2 a gallon. Additionally, the completion of the Keystone XL pipeline will add almost a million barrels per day that will be shipped overseas, lowering the gas prices for the world. This is how Trump will be lowering inflation and interest rates, which will come quickly once gas and diesel prices decline in this country.Vegas » Today, 12:28 pm » wrote: ↑ I, Vegas, on this 17th day of February in the year 2025 (as duly recorded in the grand annals of time), do hereby declare this thread an official and open forum for all NHB members to boldly proclaim their predictions for the next four years. May your foresight be sharp, your speculation entertaining, and your prophecies—at the very least—mildly less disastrous than reality itself.
I shall start:
The Good:
1. Russia/Ukraine war will be resolved- the war is over. Who cares who benefits?
2. A large part of the the American economy will flourish. Not all, but a large part.
3. Patriotism will reach new heights that the country hasn't seen in over 20 years.
4. The division in the country will still be present, but the gap will close some, due to people being sick of networks like CNN.
5. Illegal immigration will be at an all time low.
6. Drug and human trafficking will also be at an all time low.
7. An influx of dims will be indicted for fraud after the DOGE reports show their misuse of our money.
The Bad:
1. Greenland will be purchased; Musk will get explicit rights to the vast supply of lithium and graphite minerals there for his EVs.
2. Trump/Musk will have a falling out. Musk will step down from DOGE.
3. China will continue to find ways to spy on us.
4. Israel will take over more of the Middle East. America will help.
5. Housing market will continue to be unaffordable. Only upper middle class will be able to afford a home. The rest of the 85% of the nation will be need to rent or live in apartments.
6. Gas prices will rise, perhaps even breaking records.
7. After all of the corruption is exposed, the taxpayers will only receive very little of the money back. The billionaires will get most of it.
