The masses have succumbed to the tyranny of Capitalism. Delicately executed over the last few hundred years, those who wielded Capitalism managed to subdue the everyman into a state of complacency tempered with ignorance. Shuffling through the day to day, people resemble more closely a series of neatly filed column of ants in their constant drudgery than human beings. Day in, day out, they accomplish the modus operandi designated to them at birth. Each individual performs the task best suited to their unique genome. Certainly there are many children who are deemed capable with a wide skill-set; the classic ‘jack of all trades, master of none’. When presented with this great level of capacity, the Registrar is beseeched to choose the most beneficial designation. However, it is not uncommon to find specimen that exhibit exceptional proficiency in one area. In this 2219th year of general reckoning, the most desirable ability is that of Super-Sensory Perception.

Scholars scoffed at this type of thinking and rationalized that Government was intended to represent the thought and desire of the people. They would shout, “Deception is the tool of the devil! Government would not dare attempt to blind us with such blasphemy!” People would not have known what to think. Moreover, politicians are always prepared to gain from this type of uncertainty. Acting from the guise of the concerned parent, Government can quickly ease any rising concern from the people; conveniently adding strands to the webbing over the people's eyes in the process. As time went on, the great sages would be silenced in most unpleasant ways. This final crushing blow to the embers of rebellion serves to extinguish the faint glimmer of hope needed to bring about change. With the resistance at home squelched, the leaders set their gaze to new global frontiers.
