Niagara Falls is eliminated; the tides are fenced off to produce electricity; the churches all taken over and turned into commercial colleges; veterans benefits abolished; libraries and art galleries sold; horses, dogs, birds, trees, and flowers eliminated; and food made into pills. It was so unsatisfying that everyone left the country.</p>},
