Convicts working for free is a form of slavery, although it is easier to accept and more justified.
Think about it... it is a legal form of slavery... although in may prisons, they do get paid a small amount...
And community service... |

Hey, um...Chris Miller...get your **** together and check your facts...takes about 2 seconds... The Emancipation Proclamation was first issued on September 22, 1862...the war was already over by your 1865 suggestion...and the blacks were already back to work for their old masters... |

No, it is not legal. Unfortunately, yes there are still people who are treated as slaves (i.e. illegal immigrants) in the sense that they get all this hard work labor for little pay and such. They do not get beat, but you dont necessarily have to be beat to be treated like a slave.
p.s. I don't care if any of you people disagree and give me thumbs down. As a person who lives on the U.S.-Mexican border, I know of some people that are treated like slaves. |

Well, not in the sense that one person can own another; but, many of us are held slaves by the government. Those of us that were married for many years and then divorced by men who decided they wanted a younger woman and we had not the resources to hire the best of lawyers. We have been shafted - left with no maintainence, very little income from SSI because like others I was a stay at home mother as my husband wished.
I now live on $563/mo. He married a woman 2 years older than our son, refused to pay the bills the judge ordered him to pay, has left all of the utilities in her name; so, no one has been able to find him.
If I were to try to work any kind of job, the government will take from me dollar for dollar what I earn. Not much of a chance for me to climb up is there? I call that slavery.
I hope this gives you a different view.
Good luck. |

What is slavery? Are you talking about someone being deprived of their rights and ignored of their freedom and ability to succeed in goodness and peace in this free nation of ours? Well then if you are then that is truly slavery? If your talking about someone making themselves less of a person beside someone else other than knowledge then I would also say that is slavery.
Are you talking about those wonderful people in history that did everything for us to have freedom and that to be ignored, well then that is also slavery of the mind isn't it. I pray they wake inshAllah Amen |

No, it has not been legal in AGES but black people still bring it up as an excuse for their problems. I have never owned a slave, but it still a topic with them for some reason. |

So is the slave trade - only the CSA Constitution made that illegal and the USA was the largest transporter of slaves to the New World by far until around 1888 when the last New World Nation ended non-judicial slavery (Brazil). It's kind of moot now but it never was made illegal Constitutionally. The New England states prevented that from happening. |

Certainly not. Read the 13th amendment to the US Constitution.
Edit: Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, only ended slavery in the "Rebellious States". The 13th Amendment ended it in the entire country. |

Black folks keep bringing it up yes, the problems they have are not a result of slavery . |

Actually, it depends who you ask. I personally think it is alive and kicking in the USA through the use of illegal immigrants who work for below minimum wage. |
