Quote:It appears that you work for the State (60%), and they allow you enough to provide for your own housing, food, and transportation. How are you not a vassal of the State?
If that's all it takes to be a vassal, then how is any employee not a vassal of their employer?

You're just taking overblown historical terms and slapping them down to make a rhetorical point, just like you do with slavery. You may not like the European welfare state, but it bears almost no resemblance to vassalage, or slavery, or whatever else you care to throw at us. (Serfdom? Peonage? Thralldom? Take your pick.)
