A true clairvoyant?

Paleo-Future.com just published a number of children's letters from 1976, predicting what life would be like in the year 2000. This one seems to know where we're headed in the year 2009. I especially like the part about driving as fast as I want to without the worries of getting a ticket:

Dear Laurie,

I think in the year 2000 the earth will be much more polluted than it is.

I also think that we will have no more school, and cars can go as fast as they want without getting a ticket.

The government will pay every person as much as they want without them having to work. I also think we will be out of energy for stores or anything that uses fuel in the year 2000.

Sincerely,
