--{ I'll be Damned, the Future's All Planned:
"Jacques Attali et al. Promote the Vision
Of Their Utopia Beyond Nuclear Fission,
Where Corporations Run the Planet,
On Lookout for Profit Like Hungry Gannets,
Ensuring all Peoples Conform to New Norms,
For Maximizing Profit Everyone Conforms,
To Self-Surveillance of Health, Consumption,
Obeying the Rules so There's No Disruption,
Propaganda of Scarcity Mandated in Schools
Complying with High Prices, Trained as Fools,
Constant Self-Monitoring to Avoid Penal Strife,
Or Insurance Will Skyrocket for Rest of Life,
The Sad Thing is, It can All Be Done,
Gadgets Prompt and Lead You -Go on, Have Fun" © Alan Watt }--
