(More of a factual fast essay about sci-fi than actual fiction...)
Maybe the movie 'They Live' is real...
Ok... So maybe it doesn't involve aliens in the sense in the movie :-D
Maybe it just involves greedy, controlling, profiteering people right here on Earth... Maybe this is what the movie was actually about???

Roddy Piper looks around in Times Square or whatever and sees (I'm just making these up) big LED ads: "G.E." "Verizon" "Walmart"
He then flips on the sunglasses and sees:

"Simply Accept Cheap Labor From Illegal Latinos"
"Major Corporations Are Your Friend"
(Turns and looks)
"Monopolies Are Nothing To Be Scared Of"
