- Ididntdothis 6y agoThere are plenty of peasants in the places you mentioned. You just don’t see them. Who do you think provides all the basic services?
- pacala 6y agoCorrect. The point is that the peasant mass center, so to speak, is today more distant that it's ever been.
- Ididntdothis 6y agoWhy do you think it’s different now? The wealthy have always lived in a few places from where they could dominate the whole country.
