The Press is known for comparing a real world dystopian future with the movie Blade Runner. Here is one such recent example.

Reform, Human Capital and Our Nation As It Becomes Blade Runner's World in Real Time (Article HERE).

And here's some wishful thinking on my part. First, let me make myself clear, the following is NOT a fact. Again, it is WISHFUL THINKING on my part. BUT --- if it were to come true --- you can say you heard it here first. Would be absolutely awesome = Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross to compose the score to Ridley Scott's Blade Runner sequel.
