Gentle reminder sir: words mean things.

You used the word ‘serf’. Serfs served a king by providing someone for the army and by paying 25 percent of what he earned, farmed, or produced to the King for the general welfare.

It was a good system, and it worked.

I aspire to serfdom. If I could cap my total tax bill at 25 percent, I would take that deal.

I’m working well into May to break even.

LOL!

True, serfdom would be an upgrade over our current status.
