I see. We will have a nation where NO ONE lives anywhere but in an urban
people-kennel. Thousands and thousands of square miles without either a
person or structure (things have to be moved as well as people by
transportation methods, you know) in sight. There be automated devices to
replace and remove each person to and from his cell. At night will there be
wires connected to recover electrical energy, Matrix-style.

Good stuff...but most of it has already hit the screen.
