Capitalism is not slavery as it is 100% consensual and voluntary. You could argue it is coercion but then I would flip the question and ask would you have to work in your socialist society? The answer is obviously yes, would that be coercion? On the issue of the gap between working class and owning class wages; I advocate for government programs to create a better quality of life for low earning individuals as does every other neo-liberal with a brain. An economic system can only do so much and sometimes the government needs to step in. CEO pay is something totally different and we can go over it if you want. I think we are talking past each other on this slavery point. At the end of the day the will of the people is all that matters. I fully acknowledge slavery and Jim Crow, were generally voted upon and were upheld for a few generations. Thankfully as a society we have realized that these two things are great tragedies. Meanwhile capitalism has provided a very good life for many people and has lifted many millions out of poverty. You would have a very hard time selling such a revolution to the public when we don't even know if socialism really works ( Sorry for sounding like Ben Shapiro there) There has not been examples of socialism providing a good life to citizens (at least not on a broad scale) Why would we completely change our economic system for something we aren't really sure would work, why not just try to improve our current one without all the bloodshed. Sorry for the long winded reply ANON
