Your indentured slavery comment is a classic strawman and doesn't even apply. It's not a voluntary situation that someone signs up for.

- thaumasiotes 4y ago> It's not a voluntary situation that someone signs up for. Huh? That is in fact the normal state of indentured servitude. Slavery is also commonly a voluntary situation; that's the whole concept of "selling yourself into slavery". > Until the late 18th century, indentured servitude was common in British America. It was often a way for Europeans to migrate to the American colonies: they signed an indenture in return for a costly passage.
