Summary

This quote suggests that during a future economic collapse, the working class will awaken from their relative apathy like soldiers, ready to demand justice and accountability from those responsible for the crisis.

The quote highlights the potential for widespread social unrest and a call for a reckoning with the unequal distribution of wealth and power.
