A lot of items on the list are already "normal" for some parts of the world but I quote the above because it is less plausible than the other postulates. The existence of jails presupposes a system exists that puts and holds people in jail based on a recognition of what is criminal and what is not. Overcriminalization of society already exists (in many places). The criminals stay out of jail. The world will feel like jail for anyone who doesn't belong I guess. shiv
