Op/Ed Article against feudalism

Feudalism is not a good way to run the government of the Zhou dynasty government in many ways. One way it is a bad way is because all of the land belongs to the emperor and the emperor can’t protect all that land. The people of the Zhou Dynasty are angry because they don't think it is fair that they have to grow crops and not get paid for them. Another reason why feudalism is a bad way to run a government is because some of his lords (the people he chooses to run his states.) are cruel to the people of their states and they ask for very high taxes and they sometimes don’t give the emperor the full taxes. The Zhou Dynasty suggests that the emperor could consider changing the government’s way of running its empire to democracy that way everyone has a say. Those are very strong reasons why the Zhou could change.
