With the same aristocratic model that ruled all of Europe for centuries as families. They had middle people. Burghers and they had serfs. The system isn't new, it's just rehashed. As for Predator / Producer. That's a specious European argument that bears as little connection to reality as Harry's land theories and Keith's comparative advantage. There is a better way but I suspect the world is at least a couple of thousand years away from being mature enough to do it. By that time it will be too late because they will have devoured the place. The only intelligence by that time will be mineral. Oops! you roped me in. I have to do other things but thank you for the comment even though I trashed it.
