F*rd comin' back to the USA?

I did. lol

"ain't so glamorous" isn't elaborating. What are his actual predictions? What data is provided to back up his claims?

This is from the pdf you linked to me. Did you read the whole thing?

"The chart’s bottom line gives projected world GDP growth for 2014 along with expected population growth. World GDP growth is a much brighter number than the forecast for the developed world. 3.4% is huge relative to 2.6%, the expected growth for the U.S.
With population growth well below GDP growth, we get significant increases in world per capita GDP.
In spite of all the tough times we observe, life, on average, is getting better."

Doesn't sound like doom and gloom to me...
