     However, it is also slavery for a person to put forth more effort than anyone else at their place of work and never get ahead.  For example, the slaves under the planation owners in the 19th century and slave wage earners today.  And it's no more right for them to do all of the work at a place of business and receive very little compensation (wages that don't really pay for their necesseties or enough for them to be able to better their lot in this life.  Company healthcare that doesn't really cover anything at all that could be considered serious) for their efforts than was the backbreaking labor of African American slaves in the nineteenth century.

No, that's just someone thinking they should be worth more, when they have done nothing to be worth more.

Slavery is when you provide effort against your will. You don't have to work for that company. Hell, in todays world, you don't have to work at all.

You can sustain life solely off the efforts of others, who by law, have to provide you that effort. Who does that make the salve?

 

     Yeah, and who are you to decide whom is worth more?  All, I see when I look at your posts is conservative here and conservative there and a bit of "I'm king of the world."

     This country is very much still resting upon the principles that everyone is created equal and deserves equal.  And, if you're not down with that, then go live in some fascist nation that really does believe in the ideals of mafoo.
