    70s' vision of the 21st century? Pretty much looks like it.

    While I would love to live in that kind of environment, I doubt this comes to life because, even if they don't want money anymore, this'll be impossible to remove. Also, complety "destroying" current cities to reamke totally new cities like their ideal would be like... you can finish this sentence.

    Probably at a completely new way of thinking like new forms of energy and a tougher state system and implants to tailor advertising to you and so they know exactly where you are.

    really odd
    i was thinking more of 1984 or Fahrenheit 451 kinda of feel (without the grim society, of course....) which are all dystopian (or utopian, depends on your point of view of what a society should be and how it should act) in my eyes...

    every will have their own in home moderator like the Space Travesty robot thing.
    Scenario, 2031, Operation 'Fishbowl' is a sucess, except for one man....

    HAL: "Good morning, Dave."
    dave: "wtf!?"
    HAL: "swearing is not permitted Dave, you know this."
    dave: "It's 5:30 in the morning, stfu!"
    HAL: "Time to brush your teeth, Dave."
    dave: "meeh! i don't wanna get up, go away."
    HAL: "Time to get up, Dave."
    dave: "NOooo"
    HAL: "GET UP DAVE!"
    dave: "......no"
    HAL:".....Fine, Dave. Just fine."
    Fox 5 Morning News: "It's a grave day today, as a 21 year old man was thrown from a 200 story window, into the fishbowl's plaza.... I guess some people just don't follow the rules." ...... "Brought to you by Carl's Jr."
