I'm sorry to hear that after you tried to move, you were run down by a professional slave-catcher, and had the letter "FUG" (for "fugitive") burned into your forehead! But I'm glad you weren't crucified and so are still alive to give us your hot takes on how slavery was pretty good.

Holy shit, man. What's your take on concentration camps? At least the prisoners are not homeless?

If Amazon or Uber workers were slaves they probably would be treated better.

Not saying that slavery is by any means even slightly positive. Just that economic system allows for extreme exploitation of people without alternatives.

concentration camps were (are?) built to kill people, subject them to abject torture, to hell, it was not an economic end let alone an ostensibly sustainable venture

Depends on the country. Soviet ones (Gulags) were created for economic purposes as much as for political. The economic idea behind the Gulags was to extract free slave labor out of population and basically free calories out of their bodies - the prisoners were barely fed, so their bodies had to burn their own tissues (starting with fat) to survive. Millions of prisoners/slaves doing hard manual labor for no pay and eating 800 kalories per day helped the country's rapid industrialization in the 20s and 30s.

I guess I had death-camps in mind.
