In the article entitled "The End of History?" Yoshihiro Francis Fukuyama, an American political scientist, political economist, and author, wrote

glad you read it lol ... actually my post have nothing to do with the author of '' the end of history '' ( short of ) ... I didn't wanted to quote / rephrase he's words ... thing is I didn't even knew about this until few minutes back when I shoot the query on wikipedia lol
Anyway ... pictures like this posted by OP brings something on attention ....
If you took history lessons on college / uni anything ... or just read lol ... will see how humanity evolve ( or how is described / documented to evolve ) over the centuries , modern history , and our current lives brings us an huge advantage technologically in order to '' get all the information needed '' .
Take for example Indonesia ( the pic is from here so far I understand ) lol ... less than 2million square km's region , with more than 200million inhabitants ? If I rekon ... anyway that's not important ( the numbers I think are bit close to reality ) ... Are you telling me anyone can tell me aprox 200 peoples per square km can live a happy lifestile ? well yeah is true , my parents apartment had only around meters square and they raised 4 boys happy .... it's true BUT with what costs lol .
The earth is big ( well really big compared with us - humans ) , nature ( natural resources ) CAN sustain our lives here for very very long period ; 300 years ago if someone wanted to listen a new song had to travel days / weeks / months maybe to listen the composer or the musician , now all what you have to need it's to press few icons on your iphone / smartphone , or maybe couple of clicks on your computer ... 150 years ago if someone wanted to watch the sea at the sunset , maybe can take him same several days of travelling , or even weeks ... now ?

I can be on any beach from world in less than 24 hours I think lol .
Things are simple , we humans took our chance and we pursued to bring more technology than ever was here on earth it's seems . BUT we didn't know what to do with the advantages ! Why ? because of the poor human souls who can take decisions , and because of the poor souls who aren't able to think by them-self ( and following like blinds the ones who have the guts to take decisions ) . World is falling apart , and that's not an ''2012'' statement ! lol , WE didn't evolve since way too long , our political / moral / religious systems are from ancients ages ! but we are trying to live on current modern structure , this is not possible ( illogic ) .
See ... everything is connected somehow with something , natural resources and current population it's somehow in some kind of balance still for some time but this balance it's very very unstable . Humans will never see '' end of the history '' because we always evolve , always find ways to get out of the troubles since way too long ago!
