I'm afraid your son's mental retardation has kept him from gaining a sponsor, his trial period has nearly ended. we've discussed his options...

Discussed his options? Is that what you call it! You told him he could commit suicide!

Yes, suicide is an option, we do offer assisted suicide services if he is so inclined.

Suicide? This is madness! How dare you!

Ms. Henderson, we would never force the decision upon your son, the choice is his to make.

His to make? he has the mind of a four year old child!

Which is why he appears to be unable to perform in any productive capacity.

He gives me a reason to live, isn't that productive enough? let me care for him. I will be his sponsor.

You know we cannot allow that, We live in a Meritocracy, there shall be no parental benefits after the age of 18. Charity is not allowed, there is no way to provide your son benefits. You know this.

Starvation is a cruel punishment many find, suicide is a better option, there are many ways we can administer suicide painlessly. You are aware that the duty of every person is that they live so that they can benefit society. If he cannot support society, society cannot support him.

You're a monster!

No Miss Henderson, I do feel for the loss of those who struggle. There are some people who weren't made for this world. We need to let them move on. Burdens on society grow like a cancer, and if we don't remove the tumors they will grow and infest society, they will kill society. I may seem as though I have a distaste for your child, but I do not, I merely have a love for all children, all parents, and it is for them why I do what I do.

What is a Meritocracy? From your brief example it resembles the dystopian society from Logan's Run.

Thank you.

I want it to be as outrageous as possible without being too corny. Like Kevin Smith's "Red State" or "Battle Royal". I want it to be so twisted it's almost comical.
