I think the point in comparison to slavery is that:
> Across history you will find slaves that were treated well, accumulated wealth, were educated and held in high regard - yet they still legally were the property of another person
They were still - off paper - treated better than employees indirectly working for apple now. Bad taste? Sure, history wasn't pretty. It's absolutely crazy that slaves were paid more money than these employees, though. That is the point here.
- incrudible 6y agoThese worker were defrauded. They expected a salary that they didn't receive. Had they known they wouldn't get paid, they wouldn't have taken the job, they would've looked elsewhere. Slaves can't do that and they don't have to get paid at all, even though it may make sense to pay a slave in order make them do a better job.
