    It needs another frame showing that feudalism never went away. Capitalism is just a way to walk us all back to feudalism.

        Outside of small city states, capitalism came from merchantislism.

        Specifically, at the intersection where merchantislism and mass dispossession/theft of people’s land meet.

        The only meaningful change is that the assets are now, mostly, intangible and you’re allowed to move to a different parish.
