Is it right for people to be paid dirt-low wages and toil all hours of the day in sweatshop conditions? Of course not. But it is no comparison to the slavery of old where a person was forced to work until they died, they were not paid, and they would be murdered if they disobeyed or fled.
Then you too my friend are a contributor to the modern slave trade, like it or not. why? Because again modern life/city life is not possible without slaves.
Calling sweatshop conditions deplorable is one thing, but comparing it to slavery of old shows a lack of understanding of what true slavery entails. Accusing people of supporting slavery because we buy out-of-season fruit and electronics is asinine. Is it supporting poor working conditions? You betcha. Slavery? Nope.
If you want to see a modern example of actual slavery, take a look at human trafficking. People are sold for sex, labor, and to much more awful ends.
i would rather be in a sweatshop rather than being a fucking slave.
at least with my profession ill be free and get paid pretty shitty unlike the other is praise god he won't let me be free though nuh uh no way not until i am dead.
