Would you be surprised at all if there was a re-emergence of slavery in the United States?

What a stupid take. Your employer doesn't own you. If you feel you are not compensated sufficiently take your skills somewhere you will be. You have the power to make these decisions for yourself.

You don't really have those powers anymore. Maybe what Capitalizm was before wasn't capitalizm. You maybe can take your skills elsewhere is a nice thought but it really is just that. A nice thought and nothing to do with reality. Everyone is homeless and skills and education don't hold a sack of shit these days.

You may have been right back in the day but right now you're literally blind. Shit is obvious now and you can't see it. If we live long enough it will be finished off to be exactly what I'm pointing at. You're looking at my finger and telling me I'm wrong but you can't see the tsunami incoming that I'm pointing at.
