This television reminds me of a solution to problems involving enviromental damage, natural resource shortages, and issues of urban sprawl.
Some people have called it "heavy-handed", but my motto is: "Anything that helps the
children can be justified by the goverment."
What if the government were to issue "birth permits", as it currently does with marriage, guns, housing, mobility, speech, etc... Much of this in the interest of the chil'rin.
We could limit parents to heights under 5'5". Every few years, we would lower this threshold
incrementally (much as has already been done with other laws) until the average adult height was 3' tall.
(Thus making this TV appear to be a 25" console)
It would also make a MINI as big as a Suburban, a 1500 sq. ft house would be huge, and the 1/8th pounder would be McDonald's biggest hambur.... uh... food product.
Can you imagine how much less fuel, land and cows we would then consume, with no appreciable loss in quality of life?
Except perhaps the giant cats and dogs roaming the streets...
