  Serfs in Gucci belts.

  Ah, who am I kidding? Serfs had a far better work/life balance than most people in the developed world today. They had to use regular belts, though, so it all balances out.

    The reason they had more days off wasn’t so they could watch Netflix it was because to survive they needed to do a lot of long and heavy chores.

    If you want to live the life of an illiterate subsistance farmer wearing rough jute clothes and drinking nasty ale made with dirty water and reed sugar then you can just do that.

      It was meant as a joke. Capitalism isn't feudalism in new cloths, either, but that gets a pass. I think you just hate ducks.

      Besides, serfdom went on for centuries, under hundreds of different lords and rulers, in just as many environments. Your description covers one type, not all types.

        You should try serfdom today, it’s available in many countries. You’ll love it!
