Obama Health Care – was the movie Logan’s Run prescient?

In the 1970′s sci-fi flick, Logan’s Run, citizens live in an underground complex that due to overpopulation problems stemming from some sort of non-specific disaster (nuclear war?) required them to be killed by the time they reached 30 in a ritual called “Carousel”.  The citizens were led to believe that this Carousel process would allow them renewal but no one ever survived.   A government sponsored culling of the herd if you will.  We are now seeing government sponsored suicide for cancer victims in Oregon (Health Care Rationing Is ALREADY Here in the USA) - and who knows where our national health care legislation may take us.  They say truth is stranger than fiction.  The movie purported to be set in the 23rd Century – its starting to seem it was two centuries off.
