What's that old saying?

If buying doesn't mean owning than pirating doesn't mean stealing.

If they choose feudalism, I chose to join (or start) the siege outside their walls. I am a citizen. I refuse to submit to a king or a lord albeit in politics or this anti capitalism move against democracy and an open market. You cannot have citizenship and democracy without the fundamental human right of ownership.
