Is it slavery when productive law-abiding citizens have to work to support them? I can guarantee you that they don't see it that way. They are quite cynical in hollering "slavery", I have read the posts on black forums where they laugh about getting all the "entitlements" they can at YT's expense.

To answer your first question, absolutely that could be classified as a form of slavery. Involuntary slavery.

As for most black folk, as the user is a slave to his drug, they are a slave to the death spiral welfare state whether they see it that way or not or acknowledge it or not. Voluntary slavery.
