While traditional slavery is seen as a historical relic, modern "slavery" exists in capitalist democracies through economic structures and institutional controls that benefit the public sector over the private sector. It contends that government bodies and tax-funded institutions have become self-serving bureaucracies consuming significant resources without commensurate public benefit, creating an imbalance where private sector workers shoulder the economic burden. The text highlights issues like disproportionate public sector compensation, rising cost of living, and a lack of accountability within government, suggesting this situation is perpetuated by a political system that protects the status quo. Finally, it proposes solutions focused on auditing public spending, reforming compensation structures, and increasing civic education to empower citizens and reclaim fiscal responsibility.
