OMG! A black guy with a gun in the White House!

39. The people that voted them in scare me. I never saw the film, but they're busy creating our future:

..The film tells the story of two ordinary people who take part in a top-secret military hibernation experiment, only to awaken 500 years in the future in a dystopian society full of extremely dumb people.

Advertising, commercialism, and cultural anti-intellectualism have run rampant and dysgenic pressure has resulted in a uniformly stupid society devoid of intellectual curiosity, social responsibility, and coherent notions of justice and human rights.

That's where we're going at this rate... Even though I believe the tripe they are feeding their followers - anti-science religion with a division of classes by sex and race - is to make them fit at the lower ends of society.

We will always have a competing class that will do well - and will manage the whole with a technocracy at a distance. Their children will learn the hard sciences, do the research and development, reap the financial rewards of such, and be completely cut off from the troglodytes the GOP appeals to now and will keep held down forever.

I envision a mix of Brave New World and 1984. No social mobility with two entrenched groups, but with very little freedom of thinking for either.
