Thanks for posting this!

My favorite bit:

Mr. Culver - "Economics has become a spiritual thing. I must admit it frightens me a little bit. They don't seem to see the difference between working and not working. It's all become a part of one's life. Linda, Larry! There's no concept of weekends anymore!"

"They don't work for money anymore or to earn a place in Heaven, which was a big motivating factor once upon a time, believe you me."

I love that line.

"Middle class people have worked for large corporation like VariCorp, or for the government itself" is actually a VERY subversive statement. It implies that corporations and the gov't are so inextricably linked that when you work for one you might as well be working for the other.
