Sky, with the impending workforce shift for knowledge workers, we’re on the cusp of a much quicker, safer, and cheaper solution to reintroducing impressment as a culturally acceptable method of encouraging full employment. Simply enforce the laws already in place by increasing police presence in white collar residential areas and increasing enforcement staffing within the various taxing authorities. Tax cheats and bad drivers are after all 100% illegal, make everyone around them less safe, and selfishly steal cash resources that rightfully belong to the state and the hard working Americans the state supports with public goods and defense. These folks are also much easier and safer to capture and arrest, and need much less supervision in the fields given their higher average education levels and incentive to want to return to their comfortable homes as quickly as possible.

And if smart, well-paid accountants and lawyers get in the way, well, the roadmap is already well in place on how to mitigate that by threatening those professions’ ability to properly function as a pushback against the state. Simply sufficiently intimidate them and threaten to take away their ability to practice if they dare use their skills to defend these criminals against the obvious greater good of legal forced-labor as a solution to our unskilled labor needs.
