Publisher's Synopsis
In this story, Dick and Jane can be observed organizing a small discussion group to share their concerns about the frustrations they confront in their day-to-day lives. The group includes two investigative reporters engaged in tracking the transfer of public goods and services to the private sector. They report finding a steady increase in the volume of transfers, more distressing is the fact that the transfers are being consolidated. Members of the group believe that the corporate take-over is causing society to lose control of its resources, restricting its ability to carry out basic responsibilities. They conclude that they are witnessing the collapse of society.
