[QUOTE="Morsi, post: 1510339, member: 56840"] Wage slavery is different from slavery. Abraham Lincoln and the Republicans argued that the condition of wage workers was different from slavery, as laborers were likely to have the opportunity to work for themselves in the future, achieving self employment. Of course this was used as a justification to excuse the horrific abuses of workers during the industrial period while simultaneously allowing the dismantling of the South's economic backbone. Don't get me wrong im not saying there is [I]that much[/I] of a difference because there isn't but there is enough at least for a famous republican president like Lincoln to say soo. I agree with wkmac, the republicans have been corporate stooges since the start. [/QUOTE]
