      Do you have a source on that? Those peasants were basically owned by their land lord.

        Yes, school is my source. Of course this is an oversimplification and incomparable situation, but in essence they paid much less.

      And we live twice as long. That’s both good and bad, I guess.

        In terms of tax burden, it is unequivocally bad.
