I believe we had our own unique style of slavery, but some form has been around for a long time. Some would argue that there is wage slavery, where someone doesn't make enough to live on. Presumably slaves where a valuable commodity and taken care of. while wage slaves are left to fend for themselves without property or means to live.

Chinese workers are called slave labor, but even at those low wages China finds automation even cheaper.

Production in the G7 countries, Italy, US, Canada, France, Japan, Germany and the UK is rising at a 45 degree angle. More jobs seem to be going to machine slaves. Even our number one employer, the service sector, is being automated. Manufacturing doesn't seem to be going overseas. It seems to be going to automation. Where will we go?

And then there it mental slavery, where we act to limit ourselves, put false restrictions on ourselves or think we are limited where we are not or have limited experience and education so we may have a limited imagination.
