Feudalism doesn't necessitate endless growth on a finite planet. It had other terrible contradictions, which were solved by capitalism by introducing new contradictions wich lead to crisis faster, more often and with more devastating effects.Of course, I wouldn't want to go back to having Lords own all the land, but wait, we still have those, they're called landlords.
