Proof of elite approval
That's what certification is. That's what degrees are. That's what proof of stake is. That's what most jobs are. That's what status seeking is.
Elite approval is the weapon of choice to keep people shackled to the current system. And it can oppress people more than jack boots and guns.

It becomes "not slavery" when people voluntarily enter into employment agreements to exchange their productivity in creating the "product" in exchange for another good. In many cases that is fiat currency.
