    Wow. When I was a helo crewman in the US Coast Guard, we always thought that nobody could look bad in a flight suit. Oh, god were we wrong…

    Oh. My. God. I don’t see how those men could possibly sit or even bend over while wearing those tight-ass jumpsuits.

    I would love to go to that future. Jumpsuits are highly underrated because no one wears them. They are comfy and useful. I think that one day jumpsuits will be recognized for their usefulness and the government will mandate them fo everyone under 18. At age 18, they can choose to continue wearing them for life or not. I’m sure everyone will choose the first choice. Besides, at that point they will be so accustomed to them they will bebrainwashed and force their children to wear them as well and every gerneration will wear jumpsuit uniforms. After about 100 years of choice the government will madate them for all citizens, different colors for different statuses. Blue will be for normal civilians. Green is for members of the armed forces. Black is for state employees. Yellow is for construction jobs, for safety reasons. Red is for people with criminal records, orange for detained criminals. Those who live in the country, but are not citizens (green cards, visas, etc.), will wear brown jumpsuits. Pink jumpsuist will be worn by homosexuals, as to separate them from normal people. Clergymen will wear white robes or jumpsuits. No one will be fat because of regulated diets and workouts. A schedule will dictate when people eat and sleep and work, as they all will have to work, even kids. Everyday at 11 a.m. people will report for allegiance ceremonies where they will bow their leader and say the oath of allegiance:
    I will work everyday for the leader. I protect his ideas. I will pray to his power. I will never lose faith in him. ALL HAIL THE GRACIOUS LEADER!!

    I can only dream. If you widh to aid me in this future respond with your e-mail and I can send you a jumpsuit and a brochure. ALL HAIL THE GRACIOUS LEADER!!

    That black jumpsuit in the first picture would be well complemented with a couple tassles where the breastpockets are.
