They obey those who control the paycheck and the pension.

Ironically, the pensions they think they’re saving will be taken from them. Marxists are like evil locusts. They devour whatever is in their path…

Exactly. Leftists don’t make their own decisions. They’re always more than willing to follow orders from their “superiors” in the hierarchy. That way they escape, or try to escape responsibility for their actions. They’re soulless, without conscience.

The 1963 Milgram Experiment was the perfect example of how most people are obedient to authority, even when that authority commands them to torture other people.

“Stark authority was pitted against the subjects’ strongest moral imperatives against hurting others, and, with the subjects’ ears ringing with the screams of the victims, authority won more often than not.”

Yep, that’s the truth.

That paycheck... that’s a powerful motivator it seems. Even more of a motivator if everyone is in debt.

Why if I was a tyrant, I might even try to encourage massive debt in case I ever wanted to use someone’s paycheck to get them to do something they wouldn’t otherwise do.

I suspect many have bought into the communist rhetoric as well.

Exactly. They do the bidding of their paymasters.

All it takes is for the police to refuse to obey unlawful orders and it would all end in the blink of an eye.
