The problem, imo, is over population
glindakine,
There were quite a number of Twilight Zone episodes that addressed this problem and might give you some additional ideas:
Extermination Day - school students take a mandatory exam, if they don't pass, well, it's in the title of the episode
Obsolete Man - Citizens are brought before a panel to determine if they have an occupation deemed necessary for society. The episode has a librarian try to explain what it is he does, and really, what for?
Retirement? - I don't remember the exact title, but upon reaching a certain age, citizens are invited to step into the chamber, please. Sir, are you hard of hearing? Step into the chamber! Please!
