I was wondering if the globalisation of the reserve army of labour has contributed to this process. Chomsky says that the US business is much more class conscious business community, unlike other countries. It's bent on rolling back the entire framework civil rights and welfare state within the US. Is it the drive for higher profitability that behind this programme?
