1 tax-free family inheritance (κληρονομία)
1 Kingdoms (1 Samuel) 8:15–17 (LXX): When Israel demanded a centralized king, the prophet warned that taking even 10% of their crops and flocks would turn free families into servants (δοῦλοι). Modern rent, interest, and perpetual property tax routinely extract 30% to 50%+ of a worker's life.
