    Forced labour is the backbone of our whole economic system.

    I have asked economists before: is it possible to have a working, successful economic system that doesn't rely on cheap labour in other countries or in our own? I haven't received an answer yet.

    Conservatives just want to bring that cheap forced labour home. Have a two tiered society. That's why they always want to lower wages of the lowest paid workers, lower benefits to the poor and raise the wages of the ruling classes and raise corporate welfare. /rant

      Yep,I could not have said it better. If they could,they would do nothing for the workers except feed them cheap,processed crap,in exchange for working and let them live on the streets.
