User comments: Taxation has been abolished, the government has been privatized and employees take the surname of the company they work for. It's a brave new corporate world, but you don't want to be caught without a platinum credit card-as lowly Merchandising Officer Hack Nike is about to find out. Trapped into a building street cred for a new line of $2500 sneakers by shooting customers, Hack attracts the barcode-tattooed eye of the legendary jennifer Government. A stressed out single mom, corporate watchdog, and government agent who has to rustle up funding before she's allowed to fight crime, Jennifer Government is holding a closing down sale-and everything must go.
