This reads like original research. The immediately available web sources indicate that this term has some use, but none seem to support the term's definition as given in this article, or its association with such varied practices as slavery, feudalism, communism or free market economics. To the extent the article has sources at all, they are unspecific and do not seem to address the topic of "economic encroachment" itself; the article is therefore also a synthesis of published material serving to advance a position.

• Delete It is such a general concept, probably 90 percent of all human activities could be lumped into it. Steve Dufour (talk) 05:30, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
