This Can illustrates what the future holds as a result of humankind's current actions.
Homo self-destructus
You learn that people have a thing like money and an economy at their disposal.
"What good is money? Those humans exchange all that useless clutter for money."
Basically, smart and selfish people get most of this stuff. But loners who subjugate entire regions intent on securing them by any means necessary also don't exactly fare poorly in terms of the monetary supply.
"They keep draping various strange things over their bodies and are happy when they have to spend especially much of that money," you wonder.
It sounds all too familiar to you that the Earthlings also keep slaves.
"They even have multi-story stables for their slaves! Small people are also used optimally on Earth. Finally, something positive!"
"It sure is strange how they ensure that no overpopulation ensues down there. Humans are sorted according to skin color. The whites kill the blacks, or they let them drown and starve."
In your opinion, it's OK that the rulers are acting so unreasonably and not listening to the young residents.
"If it were any different, our students wouldn't have this most enlightening Final Disaster."
