Never have used meth.

no ? traumatic brain injury ? @Word

@Leetx no

No

And wasn't ceasar stabbed in the back?

Why must people be forced to build roads etc? Why are people not taught and just do things for community and common good?

Have you dug ditches, build bridges or paved sidewalks?

@Word for the greater good we need roads and bridges always have always will and we now need wifi

you are being absurd I agree with storm
and also with bob there is real slavery going on in other countries mostly African but don't Chinese still sell daughters to dance or men ???
African countries are more prone to enslaving other Africans at least not so long ago they sure did

your definition of slavery is way off

@whiskywoman not way off, just the best form of slavery. Yes, other forms of slavery are worse.

@whiskywoman video explains evolution of slavery.

@Word Taxes to pay workers because sidewalks and roads do not magically build themselves!
And people "forced to build them"? When? Where? Who?
You are getting weirder & weirder in your posts...oh, wait, you read The Oracle on FB.....try some Facts,and maybe common sense....

@Word " the "Caeser" in the Babble quote, above, refers to any leader/government, not one actual person named "Caeser", which was used to refer to a demagogue.
Get it together!
Med adjustment Badly needed, call your Doctor!

@Word your arguments lack facts and substance

@Word i am an avid DIY-er, have made a concrete stoop, built stairs/decks & nuclear submarines, among other stuff. You?

@AnneWimsey i never made any nuclear submarines. I don't know anything about Oracle on FB. I was reared by a carpenter; worked on farms and ranches; and worked as a welder in a steel joist manufacture . I have make some variety of things.

@AnneWimsey I have published a book and would potentially have an invention. My invention isn't completely primary because of capitalism slavery.

@AnneWimsey I would look to have my own educational invention manufacturing arts entertainment and agriculture institute teaching all knowledge, understanding, wisdom, skill, craft, trade and college certification of every kind free from tuition, free from loans free from any fees so any and all homo sapians can enjoy the fullness of learning, teaching and all intellectual capabilities. Intellectual capabilities being the one major thing that separates homo sapian from any other known creature. BUT, I have no freedom from capitalism slavery.

You have cited & quoted from The Oracle on other, recent, posts...so either you are lying here, or are truly in need of a Doctor NOW!

There was a previous National Geographical article on slavery. The article described how a British family, living in Indonesia, had a female maid who they brought back to England. She worked for years for the family with no or little pay and often slept in a small area and ate separately. The kids all grew up with her never thinking she was basically their slave (she was treated well). Later they realized her status and were horrified. The article stated slavery exists around the world and even though our global population has risen exponentially over the last hundred years the percentage is low but the actual number is higher than ever. Another example of how statistics can be misleading.

Why Ownership? for purposes of forced labor. Slavery isnt just about ownership.

@Word You just seem t want to change the definition of slavery to fit your point of view. Ownership is a necessary condition for something to be called slavery,

@wordywalt are you forced to be a citizen and have driver's license?

@wordywalt if slavery is specifically ownership of a person, what word then is used for forcing someone to work for greater benefit of the one forcing the labor?
