    If you were living in the medieval ages, and you were a landless labourer passing through harsh times, with no means to subsist your family of 4, including a baby that needs milk.

    To what extent do you go to try and provide for you and yours?

    I would get a job as an airline pilot or something; I hear that pays pretty well.

    Did you just read world with out end?

    I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it. (Terry Prattchet)

    If you were landless, then where are you keeping the cow?

    .
    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Landless doesn't mean you don't have a shack to live in. It just discerns you from the labourers who do have land (aka a peasant with land of his own).

    The landless labourer would have to find work in another wealthy peasant's land, or any other means to subsist his family (poaching and selling rabbit skins, or thieving, and so on).

    I would become I rugged handsome outlaw,living by my wits and a preternatural skill with the longbow.


    I would also favor green as a fashion statement.
