That naturally implies that you believe slavery is a good thing under that condition. I think you're stuck because you're always referring to workers under capitalism as the enslaved. And it's clear that capitalism has raised standards of living for workers. So you have to try and pretend that chattel slavery and workers under capitalism are the same thing.</blockquote>
