RE: The Kill Dose: A Depressing Short Fiction
Great apocalyptic vignette... but I would make a slight alteration. The "elite power brokers" wouldn't wipe out the populace. Power brokers seek to control, not destroy. Who wants to rule a world without proles? Even crazy Strangelove filled mine shafts with breeding stock and workers.

Man, it's been a long time since I've seen that movie. :)
I just loved the reference. What a classic :)
