Thus last week, Engineer Mosher introduced CAM, G.E.'s "Cybernetic Anthropomorphous Machine."

But they are attached to a sensitive feedback system that gently lets the handler "feel" what the metal limbs are doing...

The bulk of administrative duties would rest with a bureaucracy which, like all others, would be only sporadically sensitive to popular pressure. Given limited resources, such a bureaucracy would likely respond only to complaints pressed over a long period through its channels. It is doubtful that many lower income lower income residents would have the time or resources to press these complaints.
