NEAR FUTURE
The rich and powerful have fled the great cities to the relative peace of the countryside. Many cities are on fire; roving gangs are smashing and looting. Brazen speculators have driven the price of food to the stratosphere.

Bird flu has delivered a fatal blow to the world with millions dying everyday.
The smell of rotting corpses fills the air. Huge bulldozers are shoving bodies stacked like cord wood into giant ditches.

The mighty United States has fallen; the members of the military dictatorship that once declared martial law are all dead. Political prisoners that we put in concentration camps escaped and relate stories of torture and horror beyond description.

The military junta was not able to contain the global pandemic. These advocates of global government did not act until it was too late. The epidemic spread like a wildfire out of control.

It is impossible to state the extent of the damage as all social order has collapsed. The whole world is in extreme peril. There is an eerie silence all about. No cars on the road, the highways are empty except for the carcasses of a few cars burnt beyond recognition. Houses have overgrown lawns and smashed out windows. In the mall there is much debris of looting and it looks like a tornado hit the place. Smashed furniture boxes and crates litter the street, as well as broken glass and bits of metal. Mangy dogs are chewing on the rotting corpses.
