A list of twenty-eight “prophecies,” all presented as entirely positive. No pollution with electricity produced by water-power and hot and cold air provided to homes. No mosquitoes and flies and wild animals only in zoos. People will get more exercise from an early age, and everyone will be expected to walk ten miles a day. Education through university will be free to all. Poor students will be provided with food, clothing, and housing. Medical care is provided free through schools.
