I think the author does not present adequate evidence to support his argument. This is because all he wrote was a scenarios that he can envision given the circumstances. There are no accurate data given like statistics, transcriptions, or even bills or laws that supports his views. All I can glean is that these are suppositions that may or may not be true given the circumstances it is presented with.
