The Problem: Medical
advances since 1950 is providing abnormally extended life expectancies which
has allowed a drastic increase in the world’s population which threatens worldwide famines riots,
and endemics!
Example: The
average life span for American males in 1935 was 65. The life span for the
average American male in 2010…is 78. And children’s life span’s born after 2012
is projected at 120!
The Simple Solution: No one is allowed to live past the
age of seventy unless they have made a major contribution to the betterment of
their fellow man.
Even the Bible decrees that God has
granted us, “Three Score and Ten!” (70 Years.”)
Now the
problem becomes complicated by what method or methods shall be used to enforce
this? Once again your beloved leader has a simple solution which doesn’t echo
Hitler, Stalin, Mao or any of those unpronounceable dictators roaming the Central African
and Sub-Asian Veldts.
When you
reach 70, you receive a package
containing three pills, a red, a white
and a blue one, and you have a week
to select which one you use to depart this overpopulated planet. All three
pills allow you to depart in a soft, whirling dream like state.
The red pill grants you exit while you
enjoy reliving your life’s most wonderful moments!
The blue pill provides you the opportunity
to experience all of the wishes, obsessions and desires your life did not
grant!
The white one presents a pathway for you to
enjoy all of the fantasies, hopes and wishes you didn’t have the imagination to
conjure!
There is one
small print limitation; You Cannot Mix
The Pills!!!
Now, what if
you just don’t have the guts to go out when your time is up? Well, on the
eighth day The Pill Police show up and they have an assortment of pills no
one…well hardly any normal person… would like to take.
I’ll give you
one of the least obnoxious ones: For Clean Freaks; they go out believing they
are submerged in a river of human and animal excrement.
See? Simple
solutions for complex problems…trust me!
