To replace them, if these people work hard and produce income, they can then sign up for internet, mobile phones, and satellite tv.
Well ! Isn't that marvellous. Instead of tending fruit trees and flowers, they can spend their time gazing admiringly at grey-suited Central Bankers. A charming sight ! Guys who have no idea what is really going to happen either, but they are sure they will pocket very large emoluments in any case.
