I don’t get why we still give money to those leeches. They “own” vast amounts of land and still have special rights. We should disown them and give the money they receive to people who actually deserve it. A democracy doesn’t need to suffer monarchs.
I’m surprised that some populist party hasn’t picked this. I mean, this is exactly the kind of injustice that’s easy for everyone to agree that it just doesn't feel right. How easy it would be to do something about it or how much it would really make a difference, that I don't know.
