Inspired from a reply by ExaMeter about the implied mass murder of the poor, and some discussions that have came of late.

I'm curious what are some peoples "logical" but crazy predictions of the future.

Mine is that eventually mass employers like Wal-mart will incorporate some form of barracks living for their lower end employee's.

I think as the cost of living and min. wage gap increases eventually some form of departamentalized housing may develope as an employee "benifit". Considering Wal-Mart's land buying practices (the Wal-mart Mile) is it a far strech to see a dormitory on top of the store or nearby?

I'd be curious about other people's predictions.
