Honestly, Idiocracy might be the good ending to America. Not only was camacho objectively better than Trump at his job, but the underlying logic of most of the setting was strong too. Increased child protections? That’s good! Even if i don’t think Carl’s Junior should handle that. Advanced and easy medical system? Hell yeah! Legalized sex work? You love to see it! Heck, they might have kept capitalism but at least the apparent good guy in the system took over.
We genuinely might not even reach idiocracy’s level in my life time.
They had a device that could diagnose various illnesses simply by shoving 3 rods into your various orfices. That’s considerably more advanced than any medical tech we have today.
We have no idea how accurate the diagnoses were though.
It’s also possible that the rods were completely unnecessary, and they were there just as a “we have to make poor people healthcare worse than rich people healthcare” measure. You know, like the hospital equivalent to Spotify ads for Spotify.

Not to mention the beer subscription, and corporate funded clothing.
‘Baitn’ Channel? C’mon!
While I agree with everything else, calling Idiocracy’s healthcare system advanced might be a stretch lol
