Question about Earth post Subjugation
Posted: Mon Apr 29, 2019 7:31 am
So, I've been slowly rereading this series and a thought occured to me.
All the way back in Subjugation Chapter 1, when the omniscient narrator is talking about the Faey arrival, even before we meet Jason, it mentioned that when the Faey turned up and put everybody on farms, there was, obviously, massive upheaval. People running shops or doing service jobs found their jobs secure while business owners, landowners, and white-collar workers found themselves shipped off to a farm.
So at the end of Subjugation when Jason gets the Imperial help t take over management of Earth, and the abuses of the Faey Nobe house were stopped by the Marines...what happened to some of those people who lost everything in the Subjugation? We saw the political bodies were reinstated as best as they could be determined but what about companies/corporations etc? Obviously, some companies had no hope in hell of competing with the Faey and even if they could all their resources would have been stripped bare but were those people compensated in some way? Just told 'tough shit'?
