Thru the years of communism in Eastern Europe and tge Soviet Union.
You needed 5 people in the store to handle the pair of shoe laces before you could actually walk out with it .
First
When you went into the store and picked out the laces.
The attendant would give you a docket to take to the next counter.
At the next counter you handed the docket in and that attendant would then go and get the laces from the storeroom but not give you the laces but would give you another docket.
Then you had to go to the next counter.
Then to the cashier and pay.
Then you had to take the receipt to another counter where you received the laces.
And ofcourse on your way out you had to hand the docket and laces over for inspection.
Sounds like the FED.
it kept people employed
