The most relevant that they talked about was the "taxicopter" and how everyone has a personal vehicle. Today most people have 1 or 2 cars per family and it is not unreasonable to think that in another 550 years we could have some of the things. The most ridiculous thing they talked about was how the class system worked. How everyone is the exact same I would think that someone would come around and rebel. Also how 10 people tend to control everything about life also seems odd. Even the Alphas would have some sort of conflict with their conscience and try to stop what they saw as unjust. Overall the ideas in this book are not overly crazy. In some time with a little push from a crazy leader we could end up in this book. Its hard to tell especially when there are over 500 years until this book would "take place"
