"the question is for you , you are in favor of slave wages, yes or no? "

Is this a trick question? It is isn't it? You sent me a trick question and now I have to figure out what the trick is and turn it against you, right?

How much time do I have? Can I call a friend or poll the audience?

Do I get a clue? How many guesses do I get?

The key to the solution has something to do with the double "you" doesn't? It does doesn't it? What does "you you" mean in Chinese?

What connection is there between "you you" in Chinese and "slave wages"? How much are slave wages in China? Am I getting close? Does the minimum wage apply to slaves in China?

I bet the fact that you failed to make the word "slaves" possessive was intentional wasn't it? Is a slave's wage a wage if he doesn't possess it?

How am I doing? Am I on the right track yet?

Surely you aren't going to make me ponder what all the meanings of "are" are, are you?

Excuse me, little Juliana, the new upstairs maid requires my assistance. At least I think that's what she's trying to say. Probably just wants to do a little assimilating. Maybe she knows the answer to your riddle.

It's not a trick question, it's an asinine premise. Slaves didn't receive wages. This is where the mexican haters pretend to "care" about how badly the mexicans are being treated. Kind of like when the dems "care" about the troops.
