Default Biden Spokesman Doubles Down After Getting Called Out For Charlottesville Disinformation

The industrial revolution created many slaves; most of them were wage
slaves. Why go to the expense of owning a slave where you can hire them
by the day and discard them when you don't need them anymore?


This is why I say they could have ended slavery in a couple years in
the south without the war. They just needed the coal company guys to
explain to plantation owners how you can keep your cheap labor without
****ing off the abolitionists. Free the slaves, then hire them back
at a wage that barely covers their living expenses at the "plantation"
(AKA company) store. Most of them would stay, as they did. It would be
100 years until the government got around to looking at how we treated
coal miners or the "freed" slaves.




A good portion of the US are 'wage slaves' now. Take most any company
and if there is a slack period you get layed off. Then if business
picks up , you get taken back.

Many of us that have jobs are really slaves to the ones that are too
sorry to work.I feel that I have been a slave like that for many years.
