More dysentery also.. like a LOT more dysentery. So much so that people often believed their soul exists in their lower abdomen because when you feel pain there you die shortly after.

Wow that's a lot of dysentery.

Sorry your point lacks proper context based on reality.

Well we could argue your whole comment lacks connection to the original post

So you're not really a serf if you've got plumbing? The labor relationship with your employers isn't the issue?

"Oh, you're mad that you have to work 12/7 to stay alive? Well, have you considered that peasants didn't have good healthcare?!? Hah, I bet you didn't... Wait, you can't afford healthcare either?...well, you'll suffer and die from a modern illness rather than shitting yourself so you still aren't allowed to complain! It's all perfect now!"
