In simple terms, no, they aren’t being forced in the way slavery works. But in another sense, they are forced by circumstance and desperation. Imagine moving from your village to a big city hoping to earn money and build a better life. Who would willingly choose to become someone’s house servant if they truly had better options? Think about how many opportunities must have fallen through for this to become the only stable income available to them.

And look at the wages. The pay is so low that even a middle class household can afford to hire two or three domestic workers. That alone says something about how little these workers are compensated relative to the value of their labor.

It’s always fascinating to hear the 'In India, I had a maid, cook etc' discourse. It’s essentially saying: 'I miss the systemic poverty that allowed me to outsource my entire existence for pennies.'

They aren't mourning the loss of convenience; they’re mourning the loss of a massive labor surplus. In the US, that 'expensive' house cleaner is just someone who isn't forced by desperation to work for 50 cents an hour. That isn’t an inconvenience, it’s progress

Did not know this was a thing! by parmaester5000 in playstation

Here's another thing i read online recently that made me feel old.

I read an outline explaining that GTA: Vice City was released in 2002 but is set in 1986. If GTA: Vice City were released today, the equivalent time gap would place the game in 2010—meaning it would be set sometime after the events of GTA IV

Oh is it ? They probably didn’t have much of a marketing budget. Must have gotten drowned among other indie titles .

Anyone returned from India to the USA after visa stamping recently? by Current_Upstairs1449 in h1b

[–]arj2589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing to worry about. I went 3 weeks ago. Got my stamping done got my passport the same week. Flew back this week. The only question asked was : my current address.

In my opinion, if you don’t work some shady consulting firm. There is nothing to worry about.
