The realist in me knows that the people working at Wal Mart will accept this, because in the end they have no choice. But when you continue to squeeze people and control them more and more closely, eventually they wake up and realize who has the real power. Eventually the guillotine rolls out, and everything starts over.. Can we not do this this time?
- citilife 8y agoThe scary part is.. this time we have a much higher amount of control. Unless people are unwilling to not use that knowledge / power, then we are going to be less effective when the guillotine rolls out this time... That being said, the initial Russian transition of power in WWI, where the czar stepped down was without (minimal) violence.[1] This is before the October revolution (which was violent).

- cryoshon 8y agothis isn't a toe-in-the door surveillance maneuver to test the waters for people accepting it. this is scraping the barrel to get whatever last dregs of control remain. we can choose not to roll out the guillotines this time. but then we'd just get violated for longer.

- dfxm12 8y agobecause in the end they have no choice With so few people unemployed, they have as much a choice now as they almost ever will. Of course, thanks to Walmart's anti-union tactics, you won't see an organized workforce telling Walmart "No!"
