World view

House exchangers are world citizens. Not globalists, who believe that the world is one. House exchangers are just conscious of the world. For instance, what is the largest city in the U.S.? Easy. Right? New York. But what is the largest city in the world? And where does New York come in? By some counts New York is way down the list, number 21 on Wikipedia which uses something called "City Proper" to determine that New York has about 8.55 million citizens, whereas Shanghai in China has 24.2 million people and Karachi, Pakistan, has 23.5 million. But China comes in again at third with Beijing that has 21.5 million people. "World Urbanization Prospects", a United Nations publication, defines population of a city proper as "the population living within the administrative boundaries of a city or controlled directly from the city by a single authority." It's worth noting that Lagos, Nigeria, which tops some lists, comes in fifth on Wikipedia with 16 million people just behind Delhi, India, with 16.7 million. Where will we be in 2050. There will be many huge metropolises, because they are all growing. As is the world population. How will we feed them all? Maybe computers will have taken over all work by then, and the world's hunger may have dissipated. Right. Who knows?
