Logan's Run: 2032

Logan's Run 2032

No more 'don't trust anybody over 30' but instead...

When you're born, you're implanted with the "jewel' in your left hand (because Righties are RIGHT!). It remains dormant until age 16..

At age 16, the jewel begins to glow 'green or yellow'. Green you're on a good path per State Requirements... yellow, not meeting State Expectations....

At age 24, the jewel glows Green and Red. Green, meets State Expectations.. Red: Failure.

At age 35, anyone with a Red Jewel is sent to 'a higher calling'.

Additionally anyone over 35 who has changed from Green to Red is also done away with.

You can glow 'yellow' after age 24 at any time to give you ONE YEAR to return to Green.. if not then, RED.

Hiel!!!, the State and Perfect Society reigns!

Isn't Technology Grand?

younger people will want to die instead of having to deal with the crappy life we are creating for them. Actually it reminds me more of Soylent Green when the older guy wanted to die.
