    It actually improved a lot of things on the long term. We don’t have to rent land to a lord for example like British do today. But I don’t mind you to love being slave to lords and rich people. Freedom and equality is a tough road, not for everyone.

      Surely if you’re renting land to a Lord, or any other person, that would be a welcome income stream?

      Sure, that might be true. A bit like free market capitalism improves a lot of things in the long term, even though it might locally sometimes cause some pain.

        Just like free market capitalism improves a lot of things in the long term

        its the opposite, only short term. Definitely not the long term.

        Uhm, what? Capitalism is pretty good at inducing rapid growth but is inherently unsustainable. Unlimited growth is a fairytale
