Nader once said, "If you don't get turned on to politics, politics will get turned on
you." I think that there is much in 's work that might speak to such a sentiment. The
notion of the consolidation of power without people being able to exercise voice, control, or
some level of resistance to it is a very scary state of affairs. It becomes even scarier when
the reader sees , continually working for the good of the state and pushing himself to do more
and to work harder. In the end, he is disposed off to the glue factory without any regard,
airbrushed out of the picture of history. If individuals surrender their voice, their freedom,
and their sense of activism which can mobilize power from the bottom up, they run the risk of
becoming like a nation of Boxers.
