These people and slavery, however, are very different. It means:
–noun
1.
the condition of a slave; bondage.
2.
the keeping of slaves as a practice or institution.
3.
a state of subjection like that of a slave: He was kept inslavery by drugs.
4.
severe toil; drudgery.
These people are not kept in confinement. They have freedoms and are allowed to do/say what they want. So while some may consider what they do "slavery", it is not the same as what it used to be. These people are not forced to work at all. It is all their choice. People also expect more out of life now. People now expect things instead of wanting them.
People have choices now. Thats the difference.
so then....who do you think is in slavery today?
ReplyDeleteIt's true that those people have to work most of their lives, which of course is a bad situation, but there are real slaves in the world today.
ReplyDeleteSlavery can be interpreted in many ways yet with the overall meaning of working for little or no pay. I do agree with people working all of their life in America to retire or pay bills yet they aren't entirely controlled by a certain person. Slavery would usually consist of a master or owner. Yet in the U.S people who are working to pay off depts are usually the ones who put themselves into dept in the first place.
