In other words: We have to keep the slaves in poor conditions or else they'll quit working. The only thing we are able to provide to make them work, is a threat of death if they don't. No carrots, only sticks.

If you're in a globalized economy that has scarcity, yes. That is the unfortunate truth of it. And you're mostly deluding yourself if you manage to outsource your need for slaves to other countries and think you've done anything particularly good. It's a prisoner's dilemma over and over.

What if we redistribute the scarcity so the people with way too much have less and the people with way too little have more?
