    Synopsis

    So what's more important, you being able to choose between nikes or jordans, or ending slave labor and improving the material conditions of the people on this planet?

    do you think we could live in the world we currently do without slave labor?

    did not realize that, I dont think it should be that easy

    Depending on your existing debt and credit, you can get approved in seconds and have the money deposited into your account within the same day

    It's easy to get trapped these days

    No idea, don't care. I will gladly accept a heavily altered world if it means the abolishment of slave labor.

    are you saying people choose to work in the mines to support there families and if they didn't want to, they should just not work there?

    Why don’t they revolt like you think will happen in the us for some reason?

    No that’s the trade off. Either they go into the mines or they don’t get paid.

    This sounds cruel but unless there’s an actual viable alternative that can be implemented this is all pretty words

    A workers revolt is doused by propaganda

    The poor white man believes he has more in common with the rich white man than the poor black man. And that's by design.

    there is a viable alternative. but people like you don't want it.

    technology won't do that and you are fooling yourself if you believe so.

    The poor white man does have more in common with the rich white man than the poor black man especially these days.

    interest and loans can be great for both parties because it allows you to borrow on future money an investment can make you even if you dont have the funds today

    there needs to be an interest rate to incentivize the lender to give out said loan

    predatory loans, like those for education are not good.

    would like to hear OPs argument against the idea outside of assuming the person will not pay you back - if nobody paid the loans back it wouldnt be a thing

    We all profit of it indirectly.

    I would like for it to end obviously but what is the viable alternative.

    why not?

    Because who controls the technology? the ruling class, the elites, the capitalists. What will they use it for? to exploit the workers, or toss them aside into the dumps when ever it benefits them.

    why not?

    Technology is produced and owned by the people in power with capital and they have no incentive to help anyone but their own.
