- hunglee2 4y agothere was at local level, basically Detroit had to sell policing rights to OCP (or something like this). Govt was definitely the heroes, I thought the non-robo cops basically represented govt + working class
- havblue 4y agoThat was somewhat of a plot hole where you think a state of emergency would have been declared at the end and the army would be sent in.
- simonh 4y agoThe basic premise seems to be utter government dysfunction, which allows the corporations to take over a lot of power and provide public services directly. That might include the military, and in fact OCP pitched the ED-209 as a police and military product.
- hunglee2 4y agoyeah this is correct - govt basically outsourced security / military to OCP.
- squarefoot 4y agoOne might think that sending Blackwater in Iraq was a test before deploying them in the US some day.
- hunglee2 4y agoI was also thinking about the relationship Boeing has with US, monopolistic provider of civilian / military fusion technology, Govt really with no alternatives but to keep giving orders
- agumonkey 4y agoOh there were a few, govt was a sellout output for OCP military production.
