You'd think I'd at least notice when I go and push someone over for no apparent reason, while under the effect of this karma thing. I'd also notice other people suddenly changing their behaviour like this. It's a very poor model for behaviour as we actually observe it.
There is no such a thing as a revenge force.
There is however a force that will always try to balance positive and negative in order to maintain the equilibrium in the universe.
Without such an equilibrium the universe would have gone already.
