Maybe the Chinese will install 5,000 tiny apartments in the lower 20 floors of each of these buildings, so the cubicle workers won't even have to commute. They'll just get out of bed and hit the elevators. Throw up malls inside them, and the tenants/employees will never have to leave.

That's probably a really good description of life in cities in 20 years, if there is any life in cities in 20 years. Throw in the Obamacare clinics, along with the euthanasia booths for the over 40s, and you're good to go.

Throw in the bottom 4 floors being dedicated to security and requiring all residents to to be RFID chipped so 'Runners' can be located and you have an above ground "Logan's Run".
