1. I think the Child Abduction issue with Japanese Nationals will become more apparent to many in Japan and in the world 2. The filthy rich will get richer 3. Citizens of the world will come to their senses and realize that Democracy is just a word and that it doesn`t really exist in the world. 4. The UN will do more of nothing. And last 5. Anything to do with Obama.

I think it will be news about companies,jobs,economy and what changes that will have to do to weather economic woes caused by balloon economic scams of corporations in cities.

How they rebuild their confidence in economy and money circulations. The buck circulations rebuilding stories and the new business corporation heroes,will dominate.

More corporation new games on buck circulations rebuilding.
