"Men at Work": Was Louis Fedders SUPPOSED to Die?

Alright, alright, alright, scottscreens here with a theory that's been rattling around in this empty coke can I call a brain. "Men at Work" (1990), pure cinematic... uh... something. I'm watching it again (for the 50th time, no lie), and I'm thinking... was Louis Fedders, the city councilman, supposed to end up in that garbage can? Hear me out. Occam's razor would say, 'duh, he was murdered, genius.' But consider this: he was in a toxic waste dump. Someone clearly wanted him gone, and wanted to bury him somewhere a cop wouldn't look twice. I think maybe, Just maybe the original plan was to just rough him up a little, scare him maybe, and the whole thing went sideways. "Woah! Accident! Accident!", right? See, the dialogue is kinda clunky, and this movie isn't exactly aiming for Citizen Kane levels of plot sophistication, but what if the real conspiracy isn't just about illegal dumping, but about a blackmail scheme gone wrong? Maybe Fedders knew too much about someone else and the plan to silence him escalated into a full-blown murder. Emilio Estevez's character James and Charlie Sheen's Carl get mixed up in it, but if Fedders was really the target, then it explains why no one is really sure why he's dead. Just a thought. "Ass Wipe? Nooooo!!!" Or maybe I'm just reading too much into a movie where the climax involves a bazooka. Probably. But hey, a guy can dream, right? Let me know what you think. Am I crazy? Does this hold water? Or am I just as nuts as ol' Louis Fedders lying in a dumpster?
