Slavery

In Con's closing statement he fails to understand that the slave masters dedicate their entire lives solely to understanding how to instil fear and discipline into people. It's not actually easy to organize approximately 79 slaves in your grand mansion or wherever you work. It's furthermore difficult to be able to afford to pay the 'bouncers' so to speak (the people who will do the whipping etc for you and guard slaves from being taken by other masters). The Slave masters have a very difficult task too and their lives are not easy. Con tries to attack my point about slavery being the most efficient system to encourage specialization and everyone being as good as is possible to be at the tasks they do. His attempted rebuttal is 'I dare not find out'... I don't find this sufficient enough to even address. con keeps reiterating 'it would not be good for the slaves' but has failed to define good and failed to address my point that it would be brilliant for not just the slaves but society as a whole. While it is true the slave owner reaps the benefits of slavery, what Con forgets is that each and every slaves has to be kept alive and healthy in order for them to achieve their best possible work efficiency for the master. Consequently, it is impossible for a master to not keep his slaves well-fed and nurtured if he/she expects them to have the energy to work as hard as they possibly can. The health of slaves in the past was not good per se, but at present, if a nation wanted to compete with other non-slaving nations of this day and age, slaves would definitely be in good health as the world is richer now than it ever was before with a GDP of 3.5 trillion[1].Con mentions that slavery is Communism but in the original Marxist Communism there is no division of hierarchy as everyone is equal.[2] Clearly it would be implausible for one to form between Communism and slavery since slavery not only has hierarchy but creates classes within it that are taken as birthright (masters, slaves and 'bouncers'). Communism does not allow classes and therefore stands against a very fundamental concept of slavery.[3]Con then blatantly lies. Slavery is no practised anywhere on Earth at present apart from North Korea arguably. His source is a severely right-wing article by "Los Angeles Times" that has absolutely no evidence in it. it mentions that slavery illegitimately is occurring in Africa (based purely on speculation) and is not relevant too the legal practise of slavery which is what this debate is regarding. I have no clue why Con thinks South Africa is not capitalist but it is as capitalist as they come so much so that there is an actual Communist party in South Africa with a campaign website dedicated to fighting it.[4]The North Korea point was irrelevant. North Korea does not admit that it enslaves and therefore is not putting in all the regulations that a legally enslaved nation would.Con finishes off his attack on my case by stating 'there is no point in life other than self-pleasure'. What an absolutely disgusting outlook to have, let's be thankful that the majority of humanity is not like Con or everyone would be masturbating instead of having sex because they only want self-pleasure and our species would be long gone as would our morals.Con's fourth source actually contradicts what he says as it says while some researches assume natural/innate talent is the most important factor in success, other researchers negate its importance and instead say it's the timing and quality of one's practice that determine their proficiency[5]. Con then makes an ad hominem attack calling my view idiotic; this is poor conduct. Con then furthers his ad hominem attack calling society weird (as if this is supposed to prove anything). He then trolls saying he doesn't know who society is but society is probably not as important as himself. If everyone thought like Con, then we'd all be as dysfunctional and impoverished as many citizens and the overall economy of the far-right-wing India and Nigeria.[1] http://knoema.com...[2] https://www.marxists.org...
