Syfy's 'Incorporated' Creates Anti-Business Global Warming Fantasy World(missed it)

The new original anti-business drama Incorporated premiered this week on the Syfy network. Produced by Hollywood lefties Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, it’s a liberal polemic preaching about the dangers of eeeeevil multinational corporations, capitalism, and global warming disguised as trendy, futuristic, post-apocalyptic entertainment.

From the first seconds of the premiere, titled “Vertical Mobility,” the liberal agenda is made clear when these words appear on the screen, setting up the premise of the show:

“The year is 2074. Climate change has ravaged the planet, causing widespread famine and bankrupting governments. In their place, multinational corporations have risen in power and now control 90% of the globe. These corporations fight a covert war for market share and dwindling natural resources. Those who work for them live protected behind the walls of the Green Zones. Those who don’t are left to fend for themselves in the slums of the Red Zones.”

It’s a liberals’ wet dream, literally – the polar ice caps have melted and New York City, half of Rhode Island, and all of Micronesia are said to be under water. The main character, Ben Larson (Sean Teale), watches the news and you can see on the screen the temperature is 82 degrees in Milwaukee in November, while the ravages of climate change are driven home.

Given how Google is moving into home automation and power generation, all we need is for them to buy Halliburton or another military supplier and they have the means for an army.
But that threat is from the political left tech moguls who already censor conservative individuals and sources.

Todays beachfront property will be cheap.

Not if the deed is worded such that the ocean edge of the property line is at the mean high-tide mark. In that case, the property area would increase hugely.

Your picture reminds me of this 1971 William F Buckley quote (Cruising Speed: A Documentary);

Curiously, the failures of Communism are more often treated as a joke than as a tragedy. (As in the current jollity: What would happen if the Communists occupied the Sahara? Answer: Nothing—for 50 years. Then there would be a shortage of sand.)

It appears that this was a unattributable saying, perhaps originating in the old Soviet Union as an Indian news source published in January of the same year, 1971, under the title of "Dry Humor" the following;

"Here is another direct-from-Moscow Iron Curtain quip. Question: “What will happen when Communism comes to the Sahara?”
Answer: “Nothing for 50 years, and then there will be a shortage of sand.”

Finally we get the 'matching' quote from Dr Milton Friedman in 1980 as published in his column for Newsweek;

“If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there'd be a shortage of sand”

The hollywood company that made the show is a multi-national company. They use all kinds of natures resources to make the show plus have private jets that whisk their execs and stars around the world.

Matt and Ben could set an example. Lead so us little people may learn from their example. Stop making the show and move to a smaller home and not have several homes. Ben might even live with his wife and not cheat on her again and again.
