Because of neo-feudalism, I now work 60 hours a week just to keep my job, so I have no life outside of work.

I had to stop smoking/go on a diet/get my tats removed/buy phone service from company X as a condition of employment. Neo-feudalism is killing me.

Under neo-feudalism, those with money and power tell those without "We own your ass."
