Topic: Community/Culture

Headline: Diversity will decrease worldwide

Nutshell: The wealth and knowledge of people around the world will become the same.

Vision: Over years of internet use, the diversity of the world will decrease. Countries now behind from an economic stance, will become richer. Education materials will become readily available to all people across the globe. Goods and knowledge can now be easily shared around the world. Therefore, all countries will eventually compete against one another on even terms. This will create a world with less diversity, both culturally and economically. It is already taking place in America.
