FT,
I agree with you. No person should own another person. I think I said that slavery was deplorable if you re-read my previous post.

But consider this. Your employer (if you had one) owns you for a period of time every work day. Your bank owns you if you have a loan. We are slaves of this present capitalist system. Ultimately we are slaves of our need for survival. And even further we are slaves of our desires, weaknesses and vices. But that does leave a certain amount of predetermination in our lives, like where we work even though we must work. How much to let the bank lend us, what vices to be subdued by.

Bob
