Or maybe I mean to ridicule the radical left that sees in the Bush administration the beginings of Big Brother, including conspiracy theorists who might believe that now that the Plutocrats have control of the Supreme Court, the secret cameras hidden in the Diebold (R) voting machines that record your face and your vote will be used by the Homeland Security Thought Police as evidence of your disloyalty to the State.
I think that vision is a little extreme. I may change my mind after the 2008 election, but for now I have faith.

I assumed you meant
1984-ish, not
Animal Farm. But since people also make allusions to how poor working people are becoming, I left open the possibility you meant in the
Keep the Aspidistra Flying sense.
When i think of the future I see more the movie Brazil- the technology is more up to date, there are terrorists bombing, intrusive government ("suspects will now be charged for their interrogations") and general bureacratic incompetance.
