"Tenant farmers? Lincoln set the slaves free."

The 2 aren't mutually exclusive. For a while, I thought of them as serfs, cuz that would mean Lord Rat, but, alas, I learned they were tenant farmers.

Tenant farmer - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org

Tenant farming is an agricultural production system in which landowners contribute their land and often a measure of operating capital and management; while tenant farmers contribute their labor along with at times varying amounts of capital and management.

I contribute land, water, sun, my signature, and 2 different sets of fingerprints.
