>>Now, land is not quite, but almost irrelevant.<<

That's because we currently rely on dense sources of energy like oil, gas, coal, and uranium. If we use it all up and switch to biofuels it will require a LOT of land with just a few farmers lying around in the switchgrass watching the clouds go by. Countries with lots of arable land per capita will be in the best financial shape.

Brains will still be useful too, of course. Maybe some smart folks can build a fusion reactor that runs on helium-3 scooped up from the moon. Hmmm... I just remembered that I own an acre of land on the moon. Got the deed for $1 about 30 years ago from some guy on campus called "The Moonman". I bet it will appreciate like TOL, which hit ANOTHER new closing high today. I should loan it to TJ so he can short it! <ggg>
