Soylent Green, the movie, 1973
If you haven’t yet seen the Soylent Green movie, 1973, starring Charlton Heston, then now is a good time to see it again, or for the first time for the younger millennium crowd. Notice on how it applies to what is going on today. It takes place in the future of today.

In the year 2022, the cumulative effects of overpopulation, pollution and some apparent climate catastrophe have caused severe worldwide shortages of food, water and housing. There are 40 million people in New York City alone, where only the city’s elite can afford spacious apartments, clean water and natural food, and even then at horrendously high prices. The homes of the elite usually include concubines who are referred to as “furniture” and serve the tenants as slaves.
