RIGHT! And it appears there is little reason for the skinflint contractor to
fear disqualification as while they are paying their dues, the coffee money,
lunch money, the system just keeps grinding on and nobody wants to say
anything for fear of a midnight dumpster dive from little brother... since
little brother has a golden shiv into the backhide of BIG BROTHER and the
pennies are spilling out of the heady gut. So the intellectuals feel in
control? Forget Orwell, 1984 is propoganda that misses the small paranoias in
life.
