  1. The world will end up a technocratic and corpocratic hell hole if this sort of thing becomes the norm. You'll drive to work on the General Electric (tm) Tollway, of course paying the compulsory $5 toll automatically via tag, then show up to work at the Amazon Arcology powered by BlackRock. That's short for architectural ecology because it's basically a massive indoor colony owned entirely by a corporation. You will be safe there and work for Amazon your entire life. Millions of people will wallow in slum cities outside the corporate controlled areas but no one will care.

  2.  @richardcranium3579  I was thinking more the lines of Snow Crash, if you've read that novel, or Shadowrun. Effectively, AN-CAP balkanization of the United States with a puppet government that exists mostly to arbitrate disagreements between corporations. But I believe it starts with the buildup of private corporate security forces.
