Truth Booths

 

At first glance it looked like an old photo booth but it wasn’t.  The government and the media had become so completely distorted that Megan Harper figured out a way to capitalize on it.  Because nothing that came out of government or the media could be believed, nobody trusted anything anymore.

Megan established the very first Truth Booth.  For just $5.00 you could ask anything you wanted and were guaranteed the answer you received was the absolute truth or triple your money back.

Megan’s sophisticated network of technology and AI systems was fool proof.  Each and every time it was put to the test, it passed and the more the people began to rely on it and trust it, the more popular it became.  With 114 booths across the country, Megan was becoming quite rich, even at just five dollars a pop.

Of course, she had a bank of lawyers on staff.  There wasn’t a politician who hadn’t sued her, and lost.  She didn’t even have to advertise.  The long line at her booths seemed endless.  Folks couldn’t wait to have their questions answered.  The only newspaper still running was The Wall Street Journal, and that had been boiled down to mostly advertising and crossword puzzles.   All the major television networks were now owned and operated by the big pharmaceuticals and 90% of their programing covered nothing but side effects.

That sounds like a great idea! Hopefully in the near future someone in power will figure out that all those side effects are the same and just copied and pasted onto all medications! Hopefully they will be removed from advertising on TV - just like cigarettes were!
