BSG S3E16 [spoilers below]

Not sure if you all have managed to see this yet, but Chief at one point actually says, "It's called a General Strike." (just before Adama threatens to kill Callie).

So, apparently the problems of a class society can be solved in a 3 minute drunk conversation between the Chief and The Pres. Only abstractly of course. My only hope is that the fact that he refuses another drink implies that he is already drunk and that what comes next is "cloud talk" so to speak.

I was going to say that at least Chief isn't a son of the ruling class like Freder Frederson, reconciling the "hand" and the "mind" through the "heart". But then I remembered - chief is not a son of the working class at all. Isn't he really a descendant of some religious "high family"? Can we trust that?
