Thanks. Actually, some friends of mine criticize this show because they say "It's only five minutes into the future!" I'm afraid I tend to agree. Maybe not the killing, but the forced arbitration is very, very real. Any time you buy something these days, you are agreeing to suspend your right to sue in court. Look at the fine print on a receipt from Best Buy or Walmart...if your product tries to kill you and you want to complain, you have to go to an arbitor of their choice. Insanity.
