> If you don't think that just as painful as slavery you're a grade A idiot.
If you have to resort to name-calling to make your point ... you're wrong. It's that simple.
When you're a slave, no matter how talented your are, no matter how hard you work ... you're still a slave and you will always be a slave, and your children too, will be slaves.
That situation is truly inhuman. Truly. So much so that the bible, the founding document of our civilization, had a built-in reset for precisely this. [1]
When you're free, your circumstances may suck ... but at least you have a chance to improve them, however remote that chance may be.
