Re: neo-feudalism is still winning (4.00 / 5)
Unfortunately the old jokes about democracy are increasingly true.

"whoever you vote for, the government always gets in"

"if voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal"

But never before has the distance between government and governed been wider. They are trending mercantile right and we are trending green left.
