Nor were they free to leave. The situations are not comparable.

Consequences of leaving as a slave: being chased, beaten, maybe killed. Consequences of leaving for Amazon workers (well at least many of them probably most of the ones not on strike): losing roof over your head, family starving, children being denied things. Slaves had it worse, the argument about it not being voluntarily decision still applies.
