I was using a simile, not a literal definite comparison of the terms in which we used, but the manner in which they were express. The solution is not so simple, not everybody can just 'stop'. Some believe in the system, some don't. It doesn't have to be systematic, it doesn't have to be sexual, it doesn't have to be any of those things. [quote=~Albert Camus] “What better way to enslave a man then to give him a vote and tell him he is free” [/quote] --------- [b]Slavery: :the state of [u]being a slave[/u]. :the practice or system of owning slaves. :a condition compared to that of a slave in respect of exhausting labor or [u]restricted freedom[/u].[/b] --------------- [b]Slave: :a person who is the [u]legal property of another and is forced to obey them[/u]. :a person who works very hard [u]without proper remuneration or appreciation[/u]. :a person who is [u]excessively dependent upon or controlled by something[/u]. [/b] Tell me, do any of those definitions fit the majority of the American population?
