2019: Dystopia USA is the story of America's all-too-possible future, a fact-based projection ripped from today's headlines—told in the narrative of a middle-class American family as it faces the trials and uncertainties of daily life in the not-too-distant future, and in the fragments of a transcript that chronicled the national missteps and failures that led to that future.
It is a chronicle... a 'history' of national economic decline and personal hardship vividly illustrated through a day-in-the-life of an American family.

But that was then; this is now.
