Didn't Heston star in this type of movie?

I'd say the Washington legislature would be good candidates -- they're already full of manure.

The body farm. It's a real thing.

Wouldn't surprise me. I mentioned the other day, Heston made some awful movies(so far, not bad enough to get on Comet; The Worlds Worst Movies Channel).

Soilent Green?

Sounds as if they did finally "Californicate" Washington State

They are trying to find a cheap way to dispose of all those millions of healthy new born babies they are going to murder.

That was it; but they weren't composting bodies, but turning them into the cheap food needed to feed the hugely overpopulated planet...where everybody still exercised the "right" of breeding like rats.

There was one feature of the society & gov't of that future time that made LOTS of sense: old people who had nothing to look forward to but increasing pain & disability (like me) could, when they decided they had suffered long enough (there was no coercion), simply check into a hospital & be painlessly put out of their misery, & their body disposed of properly. (Rather than being found rotting weeks or months later after a suicide.) THEY & nobody else decided whether the quality of their life justified prolonging it--they didn't have to prove they were on the very brink of death, as the states allowing physician-assisted suicide require.

What works in a fiction novel often doesn't work in real life.
