As long as we're making predictions:

In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find...

In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do, or say
Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to do
Nobody's gonna look at you

Etc. etc.

No it won't - too many jobs (read political pay-offs) are at stake.

LOL! Anyway, I doubt Massachusetts will ever have the death penalty. Then again, it's rather communist here so you never know.

"Two executed in Texas"-Tavda, the official news organization of the Texas Peoples Democratic Workers Party reports that two anglo pig males were beheaded yesterday for crimes against the people. Harry Hines of Dallas was convicted by the Peoples Court of smoking a cigarette and the ultimate punishment was deemed appropriate with the sentence carried out immediately. Paul Platt, also of Dallas was detected having counter revolutionary thoughts by the People's Thought Patrol satellite who reliably picked up the subversive signal from traitor Platt's microchip. Again, justice was swift"
