Hmm... but see, slavery was because they didn't have a prison system.
So people instead of being stuck in a box and paid for for the rest of their lives had to learn to WORK. Every seven years they were released. It was called the year of jubilee.
However, those very same Judeo Christian values are what prompted us to eradicate slavery. But I suppose we can do without those now, since we have no other problems to eradicate.
