      It’s a domestic thing, not an international thing. There’s a pretty large reserve labor force of people doing bullshit jobs, working multiple part-time service jobs, unemployed and not seeking work, and underemployed. The Rand line will be that the dramatic change required is everyone getting together and working together for the nation and that powers the fascist engine.
