One thing I am certain of, is like all projections, by 2051 the chart will not look like that.
It could be due to war, pestilence, natural disaster.
Or maybe the soylent green factories will be churning out cookie dough at maximum capacity by them because government permits are issued for self-euthanasia on condition 80% of a 'patients' assets are gifted to the state. The way things are today with all the graft, corruption and larceny overlooked or sponsored by those in government, many would likely jump at the opportunity of giving the state 80% of their remaining assets to be euthanized. How much more keen will citizens be in 2051? It is a whole new branch of government waiting in the wings once the government sales of Marijuana fall short.
