Your servant here, he has been told
To say it clear, to say it cold
It's over, it ain't going any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
You feel the devil's riding crop

If you haven't read The Grapes of Wrath, I very much recommend it. It's essentially about one of many families that are forced off their farm by the banks and travel out to California looking for work. Ain't a damn thing changed, still the fuck the cops.
i mean there's robots now
Technology plays a major part in the banks' accumulation and management of the farms.
Robots are simply the next logical step of automation. There is nothing unique about their impact that hasn't occurred in prior centuries - just the further replacement of variable capital with constant capital
I'm just gonna get back to my playthrough of Where the Water Tastes Like Wine and assume it's roughly the same.
