Before we think of slavery as being a thing of the past, just think of the millions of people in the US that work pay check to pay check, barely squeeking by. Those people can't afford to not work, and without any sort of education, they stay at shitty jobs their entire lives with no recourse but to work till they die.

Damn good thing too, 'cause they buy all sorts of shit that keeps the economy moving... And they have lots of kids that need food and clothes and toys...
not to mention that there ae real slaves in other parts of the world - many helping produce the chocolate we in the western world eat.
