Could this be the future for the United States?

You mean Youtube?  :-)

I watched this movie a while back and, after years of reading DU, see a lot of parallels.

That's from the movie Idiocracy. Funny movie, but sad. It is a documentary. In many ways, what happens in Idiocracy is happening today. People who talk properly are looked down, especially in ghettos and trailer parks. Also, there is the dumbing down of the education system, which likely happened.
