This movie should be required viewing for all. Entertaining, funny, but holy smokes... it's got some real warning in it!

Yes, the movie is kind of prophetic.
We allow weakness and stupidity to fester and become commonplace, rather than grabbing it by the throat and drowning it in the tub.
But don't worry, it won't be like Idiocracy at all.
The Chinese will take over long before that.
