Metalocalypse is a crazy show, but Dethklok itself makes a lot of sense as an economic power.

Dethklok has created a single-entry-point job market which is blind to anything but performance, and it is something the economy is heavily dependent on.
Klokateers are hired en-masse, and while they can fail training they cannot be denied from entering training.
These jobs are a mixture of military, engineering, and social work; and because the training has a focus on possibly all three, definitely military, the work done can operate more laissez-faire than any other company because:
>Klokateers are treated as infantry, trained to serve to the best of their ability and presumably keeping each other in line working hard
>Klokateers cannot be easily distinguished and so anyone who feels they can do a job can attempt to do that job
>Death and brutality is part of their culture; a lazy Klokateer who refuses to work can be picked on, and a crazy Klokateer who risks death in how they work is allowed to continue

It is hard to know how Klokateers are paid, but it would be entirely reasonable to pay them just for surviving the day: The more skilled the work they do is, the less risky or more exciting it is. It'd be one of the few cases where socialism actually works, because there aren't any overly-desirable or underly-desirable jobs.
As for how much they are paid, given how much demand there is for jobs and how cheaply a Klokateer could live, they could be paid a small enough amount to allow a huge workforce to be afforded.

So is Dethklok the perfect company?

No, their staff is criminally underpaid. they only work for them because they are metal head fags

But as I said, they can live very cheaply.
The Klokateer workforce is fluid enough that it can respond to its own hardships. It costs hardly anything to live when you've got fellow workers deciding to work as chefs and dungeon warrens dug out for you to live in.

>Dethklok's economic effects
Yet you failed to mention how the entire world economy revolves around Dethklok. There was almost complete collapse when the new album was destroyed.

That part of it doesn't make sense to me.
Maybe the albums harmonize the world?

did that campaign for finishing the show ever go through?
>>
>>67325618
It's been over a year and it still didn't hit the signature "requirement".
Not that it would actually continue if it hit that requirement.
Doomstar Requiem was semi-satisfying as a finale, but I still wanna see more Metalocalypse episodes focused on the Metalocalypse itself.

>>67326136
i wouldn't say it was a good finale, to much stuff was left off. they didnt kill that satan fucker and the old band member is still alive. but if it wont be finished then its whatever.

It's just the effects of a militarized society.

ok yeah still though i want a real finale.

>>67324142
They get paid. In fact they all quit when their checks bounce at the Bank leaving the band to fend for themselves with no helping servants.

Oh me too anon, me too. Another rock-opera like Doomstar would be fantastic, or another season, or movie, whatever.

I really loved seasons 1 and 2, but it started going downhill fast in season 3. The format shift from a 15 minute show to a 30 minute show wasn't good for it IMO. I liked the pacing much more during the earlier seasons.
