Come on, a "modern serf" would have access to (Civil liberties discussion aside):
- power tools
- solar/wind/battery for power independence
- internet for entertainment
- running water in the house
- cheap goods (clothes, etc are WAY MORE cheap and efficient to make now)
So I'd say the day-to-day job is theoretically even easier.
- Turing_Machine 5y agoI don't think a modern serf would have any of those things, because a society in which 90% of the available human capital is devoted to manual agriculture does not have the available labor to produce any of those things. At least, not for anyone other than the 10% of "lords".
