King: "Paying protection money" sounds so unsavory. Let's just call it "feudalism".
Sounds about right.
There was a Calvin and Hobbes where Calvin misunderstands his history lesson, and thinks that people in the middle ages lived under a futile system.
It’s just a social pyramid deal where you watch my back and I’ll give you a place to stand while you do it…………..
Governments are protection rackets. These days they can’t even get the protection part right.
In the language of The Donald, ‘feudalism’ means fighting with everyone all the time.
Now.. they shortened it to just “taxes”.
Now it’s called the “two”-party system.
“Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.”
Winston Churchill
