• slavery and peasantry are distinct, though I understand they are similar in many important and relevant ways
• there are only pretty minor (and impractical) differences between feudal peasants and contemporary employer-employee arrangements

There is a reason many have suggested we are headed toward (or already in) a neo-feudalism

I say if we have to live as peasants anyway, let's bring back tar and feathering

Edit: hell, we even still have lord and tenant as titles
