Stacy Summary:   In a way, I suppose, the politicians are right.  After all, we allowed neo-feudalism to arise in the hopes that we might become house-flipping Lords ourselves one day.  So we kind of encouraged them to fleece us in order to build moats.  The Queen, however, is not amused by the shambles of her neo-feudal state!  I think she may get rid of this whole experiment with the Parliament.  What do the Brits out there think?  Better just to have one royal family sponging off the people to build their moats?  I mean, why have 500+ royal families for whom we peasants have to build moats?
