So sad this doesn't have more views, so many important issues are being decided right now, and it seems most of us are so uninformed that these major choices are being made by corporations and the corrupt.

This film reminds me intensely of Monsanto (which I hope you'll look them up if the name means nothing to you) I can see Monsanto crafting a future like this for us.

Why such old cars if you're in the future? And what about radios? Zepplins?

Very deep thought here guys. This is true, and actually, this is already happening. Companies already sell genetically modified seeds, that are much stronger, cleaner and produce more crops. But they have a special terminator gene implanted in them, that doesn't seeds to be planted in the next generation. So farmers have to buy the seeds from the company again next year.

This is a serious problem.
