Slavery is still alive, but it is specifically Human trafficking. This is sexual slavery where people are forced to do, well you know. It is everywhere, I wouldn't be surprised if it were happening 15 min from where I am now.

I do NOT consider sweat shop workers to be slaves. In countries with sweat shops, the only other option for children tends to be prostitution. It's very sad, but it's a stage developing nations go through.

EDIT: And sexual slavery would pretty much disappear in the U.S. if we'd make prostitution ****ing legal! (no pun intended xD)

[jinzo64]

i guess ignorance is bliss because i thought slavery was pretty much wiped out.
