Completely at random.
1. Duel between the rulers of the U.S. and North Korea. To avert war between the two nations, the citizens of each hold a vote to determine if this is a worthy idea. They disbanded with paper or electronic voting, and decided that at noon on Thursday, they would all say yea or nay as loudly as possible. Surprisingly, this drew the masses of nonvoters out in record numbers. The vocal vote was heard, and the duel recommended whole-heartedly by both nations' citizens.
2. Money becomes worthless, and sharing becomes valued as currency.
3. The fall of Rome, oops, I mean the United States, is followed by the rise of China, which does an even better bang-up job of mal-adjusting our habitat.
4. Any major ecological collapse or global catastrophe is followed by chaos, out of which comes...beauty, ugliness, blandness--back to the regularly scheduled randomness.
5. Wal-Mart moves its headquarters to China. (And why not? Halliburton is in..Dubai? now.)
5a. How much money flows from the U.S. to China, via the Wal-Mart pipeline?
6. Prime farmland in central Illinois rises 45% in 4 years due to speculative real estate investors and government subsidies(actually this is a current reality).
7. God planted this Garden; they're His weeds.
8. I must work harder. Napolean is always right.
9. If our rulers represent us, why are so many of us in jail and harassed by the Po-lice?
10. Raspberries (and starts) shared freely taste better.
