Decentralized my ass
- mjburgess 4y agoJust like land under feudalism -- the land was /everywhere/ !
- octoberfranklin 4y ago... but the ownership was not.
- mjburgess 4y agoIndeed, crypto is fedualism by-design. Libertarianism with land as property is feudalism.

Stop paying your property tax and you'll find out who your landlord is. Raising and lowering that rent payment is the tool for balancing homeownership against what you describe as feudalism.
