I could be living in a pipe-dream here, but from the chatter I hear about high level Co$ execs that have blown and have been talking to the FBI, I wouldn't be at all surprised if one day the FBI raided Clearwater, Hemet and Hollywood seizing assets and property for RICO Act violations Organization Wide.
Now that people are starting to spill the beans about how the IRS deal was "negotiated" as well as the child abuse, prison camps/kidnapping, fraud and David Miscavige's penchant for smacking subordinates around I strongly suspect that the FBI is getting ready to pounce.
I know some people say I should put down the crack-pipe and that Co$ has too much dirt on too many people in a J Edgar Hoover kind of control-style but I think the Feds are going to pull the rug out from under the whole Org.
The Footbullet Co$ made in putting out the DVD of the "Anonymous bomb-threat" to the police and FBI where the DVD footage was waaaay higher quality than what was posted on YouTube may well be the first domino to fall back on Co$. The FBI doesn't look kindly on people faking bomb threats in this day and age.
We'll see what happens but I think the Berlin Wall analogy is a good one. For decades anyone thinking of going over the wall gets shot. Then people slowly start to figure out where the blind-spots are, where tunnels can be dug. Then people start to trickle out using work passes and tourist permits. Then when word spreads everyone starts lining up at the gates and overnight people are tearing the wall down with sledge-hammers.
I personally see Co$ as being no different than any totalitarian organization. For the leadership power, wealth and control are the only things that matter. Some people in the system have convinced themselves it's a great organization and can't live without it but I suspect that MOST people know that a lot of waht goes on just isn't right or they have been personally harmed by it.
Once they start to see people blowing post, bailing or a witch-hunt of endless sec-checks and KRs going on, most people will be ready for the Org to come down.
Of course that's just my opinion. How it will all shake out is anyone's guess.
