In my opinion- and I have no problem signing my name to it, unlike some vociferous, venomous - What? Oh, I know- varlets - this country is well on its way to becoming a - for lack of a better word - feudal system- and on a much greater scale than of a few hundred years ago. We - the serfs, the peasants - have no power because the 'lords of our manor' have nothing, short of revolution,
to fear of us,

We have barely a clue as to what they plan for us, what machinations they formulate. That is not our function. Ours is but to serve, to offer them our labor, whether physical or mental, to pay them the money that they have assessed us, and when needed, to fight their wars for them and to lay down our lives for them.

And be assured- in the previous feudal incarnation too there were plenty of people who were loyal to their masters, as they are now.
