ok, yeah I did know what the feudal system is/was. In many respects it wasn't too different from Lenin or Stalin's Russia. Where my problem comes is when I try to relate it to the depression or recession that may already be here. If you're saying that will lead to a feudal society, no I don't think so. The ersatz democracy is pretty well ingrained in our society, unless you think authoritarian revolution is lurking just under the surface like a tiger shark. Have a nice day and merry Christmas.
