The CNN reporter on scene prior to a soon-to-be-rescheduled launch could not get over how slowly the launch transporter traveled as it moved the giant rocket into place.  No one understands what NASA is doing, including NASA, and CNN was no help.  She just kept repeating "That's .8 – point 8 – miles per hour!"

The rocket is called "Mega!" And the world portrayed in the 2006 movie Idiocracy is happening 500 years too soon.

Culture is reflected in politics and government – governments don't survive if they fail in this regard – it's why controlling and shaping the culture is Job #1 for the US government and its many agencies.  Idiocracy's cultural presumptions and predictions have insulted and angered many who saw it for the first time over the past 16 years– and that audience was most of the shrinking middle class – not those involved in leading our great nation to the moon and beyond.

If the middle class was insulted, can you imagine the reaction of the Ivy Leaguers to the movie and its themes? The hard-working Dr. Fauci, for example, in retirement may finally get a chance to watch Idiocracy!  We can only hope he doesn't feel the need to correct some of the details.

Perhaps we can get the Pentagon brass to host a movie party, and see if the National Security Council will do a sleepover, and watch it!  Pray they don't see Idiocracy as a roadmap.
