No, of course they weren’t slaves. They were just men being forced against their will, under pain of prison, to go perform work as directed. Don’t people realize, we are here to serve the state?
Only a fool would call that slavery, the progressive Wilson supreme court said so! Of course, that government also gave us the income tax, prohibition, the federal reserve, etc etc,,,really good company.
So all those good old boys that stormed the beach on D day were forced to do so. Were they firing into their backs with machine guns.
