[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 481650, member: 11425"] PAS/EDD, telematics, 70+ plus pages of "3 40" methods, etc. All of these devices and systems were designed to make our jobs more efficient but they were also implemented to allow replacement drivers to do our jobs quickly with a minimum of actual on car supervision. God forbid if we ever need to strike nationally again. As an added bonus to this master plan, by making so many rules to follow and having the technology now to implement and monitor them at a level undreamt of in the past, they always have a way to discipline anyone based on your performance or, as soberups suggests, even arbitrarily if they happen to like you or not. I read or saw a fictional story once where the government felt it was needed for everyone to be equal and completely controlled in order for society to function properly. It was decided that if everyone was a criminal, everyone would in fact be equal. In order to implement this strategy, so many laws were created so that it was impossible for a person not to break at least one of them. Damn, I wish I remember the name of the story. Regardless, sounds familiar, doesn't it? [/QUOTE]
