Look, I don't know which country you live in but if you're worried it might make you a slave, you should riot (if at all possible, that is). Be part of the opposition.

So what...?
Not everybody is living in the "default country" and also, with the US we see how well it all works for them and how slavery is not a thing there at all.

Wow, you said you didn't know which country had legalized slavery, and I answered and you turned into an obstinate asshole for some reason. What a weird way to behave!

E: ah, wait, German. That makes sense.

Damn I thought private prisons were a loophole and not in the constitution to punish people with slave labor.

Since the days the first settlers landed here, the backbone of the US economy has been forced labor. It's only natural that we would enshrine it in our constitution.
