It was practiced at some time in every culture in every part of the world. It faded and became less visible as each culture evolved.
Every language has in it words that are evidence of slavery at some time in its evolutionary cycle. It may be generally held true that the more evolved societies used members of the less evolved to do their menial chores.
This situation was not taken on lightly. Owning slaves meant not only sheltering them, but also feeding them and, in general, looking after their health and well-being. No good farmer abuses his cattle or horses.
It might be assumed that how well they were looked after depended on how useful they were to their owners.
Cases where slaves were rewarded with freedom and independence for their efforts are not unheard of. It may even have been the expected outcome.
It is very much like the modern day employee working his way up the ladder and finally getting to be the person who is responsible enough to make the decisions for his own group of employees.
Modern day slavery as practiced by the financial institutions is extending credit to people who abuse their credit card limits so recklessly that most of their income goes into paying off the interest.
That's modern slavery. The financial institutions initiate the situation with people young enough and inexperienced enough to not realize what they are getting themselves into.
That is why the current Ontario government's plans to replace the previous administration's sex indoctrination curriculum in the early grades with financial arithmetic is such a logical and responsible thing to do.
Go for it, guys.
