    Lol, full blown feudalism. Fuck, people are stupid! This is how you lose your freedom of movement and get tied to the land like serfs of old who owned nothing and were absolutely slaves with the only exception being a theoretical right to legal action from rape and murder. This means forty percent of people are for a thousand years of sociopolitical regression.
