More "Atypical Subversive Strategy" goodness

Thank you for the congratulatory e-mail, Darwin. And if you haven’t heard, Lamarck, I’m finally Section Two! I’m now privy to the specific details of the great plan. I’m going to post both stage 2 (not to be confused with section 2, of which I’m now a part) and 3. Section 2 is entirely dull, so I’ve gone to great pains in order to summarize it. Most of it is economic gibberish – I’m sure they’re paying a lot of monkeys to crunch these numbers. I think you’ll be much more interested in stage 3. To be completely honest, Stage 3 (though it’s only in the preliminary stages – it all depends on the success of the first two stages) is giving me second thoughts about this whole thing. Not that it matters – we’re all in way too deep at this point.

Stage 2: Popularization (3-10 years)

The goal of Stage 2 is to make genetic fingerprinting more accessible, while maintaining its social value. It will begin with a vast reduction in cost and the end of ISCP’s patent rights to the genetic fingerprinting technology. Continued identity theft, along with the ever-increasing medical benefits will catapult genetic fingerprinting into mainstream culture.

If this stage is not deemed successful within 3 years, we will green-light the in-house development of a genetic epidemic. This disease will be highly localized, yet sensationalized by our chief advisors.

At the end of Stage 2 the technology will be publicized and, following a raise in federal taxation, will become free to all citizens (it will not be mandatory). This will usher Stage 3.

Stage 3: Lottery (50-70 years)

Stage 3 will begin with the creation of several hundred gated communities. These homes will be modeled after those affordable by the top 20^th percentile.

These communities will include official government jobs for all residents, along with the amenities of a normal town. The government will retain ownership of each house indefinitely; the death of the official tenant of a house will result in the expulsion of their family.

Each town will be equipped with an underground shelter; these will allow the residents of the town to survive underground for one century in the case of a nuclear attack or other crisis.

The official justification for these communities will be that we require an adequately robust and varied genetic pool to continue our existence in the event of a catastrophe. In effect, we will have set up a lottery in which the price of admission is to be genetically fingerprinted. If we can maintain the allure of these communities, we believe that genetic fingerprinting will have reached levels of at least 98.42%.
