In Egypt........

70% work for the government. Is there a better indication of just how pervasive the Stockhold Syndrome is? Surely, at some point Egyptians will want to go back to work. Yet they work for the government, the same government that may well be in tatters should the revolution proceed according to such a plan that ultimately ousts Mubarak. Which begs the question: was the revolt doomed from the get go, and what is the breakdown between employed and unemployed in Egypt, for the anger to get off the ground in the first place.
