I always thought the Royals were nothing more than parasites on true taxpaying citizens.

According to the law, the royals own everything and allow commoners the right to work the fields for 10% of the yield. This was serfdom. Now we have freedom and pay in excess of 50% of the yield. Things are better now.

LOL... A poignant observation, that.
