In order to have a computer simulation of something, you need to, in essence, reduce it to math. Quantify the various elements and their relationships to one another, and run simulations to figure out how changing one element affects other elements. I don't think we know enough about human behavior to do the necessary mathematical equivalents, except in the very, very broadest sense.
No. it is a Chaos system, the number of possibilities are infinite.

Just by asking this question on YA you could be changing our future is ways you could not imagine.
