The specific reason is ultiamtely subjective, but irrelevant either way. My statement above is true.

Slavery is far more offensive to people now than it was back then. That is morality, not economics.



So what? In pre-civil war America, slaves lived just fine and were never paid wages. Why would it be different in Asia or anywhere else?

Thats the whole point of slavery....reducing a human being to an object to be owned. You would not pay a wage to your cat or dog or mule...so why would you pay a wage to a slave?




They are exploiting workers. I get it. That doesnt mean the workers are slaves. It means they are being exploited economically.

Exploiting someone economically does not make them your slave.
