    Ah, as in Idiocracy, where the Welfare moms out-breed the intellectuals who practice birth control?

    I wouldn't describe it as "twisted" but realistic. History tends to prove this cycle of growth, Empire, Decadence, and Collapse

    A damn good book but not exactly one that lifts the spirit.

    Yep, that would be the one.

    Right... a fictional comedy with Luke Wilson is such a great predictor of human society.

    "I wouldn't describe it as "twisted" but realistic. History tends to prove this cycle of growth, Empire, Decadence, and Collapse"

    Even if if the "empire" collapses, we will not devolve into idiocracy, where we put Gatorade on crops and have drive-through prostitution.

    What's wrong with drive-through prostitution?

    Nothing. Indeed, I PREFER it.

    If Canadians think the drive-through lines at Timmies are bad, wait until they open up a nationwide chain of drive through hookers
