maybe Yanis Varoufakis really is onto something with his "Technofeudalism" book

Based on commentary I've heard from communists way more well read than me I'd say no, though it was what I thought of immediately when I heard of bringing back payment in kind. My imagination is informed that way based on reading of stuff in the Middle Ages like the Byzantines having a flexible tax policy after conquering Bulgaria, with the allowance of payment in kind.
