Worth a Thousand Words

Story here, regarding the mass-mobilization of city-dwellers to the countryside. And yes, the floor is open for suggested captions.

[S]oldiers and other citizens have now been mobilized to help out in rural areas, with armband-wearing police officers going around towns and cities hauling off to the farms anyone who appears to have nothing to do. Those taken to the farms are freed only after they secure a certificate that records how much work they have done.

This is starting to sound like a purge. If the report is accurate, it seems like an excellent excuse to weed a few untrustworthy members out of the elite. That, in turn, would suggest some kind of instability, either economic or political. Stay tuned.
