Consider it?! But we're talking about making slavery great again, like in the Bible.
What you have the family, what even the wife! That's great because, according to bible, I get to fuck her as much as I want once you become my slave. And if you're not married I'll find you a wife. It is in my great interest to marry you because not only do I get to fuck her as much as I want I also get to keep her and the kids after 7 years that you can supposedly go free. So if you want to be with her and kids you'll profess your eternal love to me and be my slave forever.
"When you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years, and in the seventh he shall go out free, for nothing. If he comes in single, he shall go out single; if he comes in married, then his wife shall go out with him. If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master’s and he shall go out alone. But if the slave plainly says, “I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free,” then his master shall bring him to God, and he shall bring him to the door or the doorpost; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for life." Exodus 21:2-8

No wonder people like you are taught all slavery is bad.. because you have no human decency. meaning you can not care nor be trusted with the care of another human life with hurting it to please yourself.
Out the law of God? What are you talking about? God clearly lets people beat their slaves, just not kill them and for a purpose. I'll have to beat you so that pain keeps you awake and that you work more. Just imagine you will be sitting much less if you have bruises on your ass.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
