Legalize Slavery?

There's a reason slavery has been so pervasive through history. Slavery provides huge economic advantages to the slave owners. It was a natural outcome of defeat in battle. A Darwinian approach to cultural interaction. I think there's a certain breed of people that were born to be slaves.

The people that are born to be slaves are the ones that believe:

"Violence never solves anything/War is not the answer"

What a bunch of silly new-age twaddle. Violence is one of the few things that ever really settles anything.

The only thing that ever puts an end to slavery is violence or the threat of violence. Slavery is a very seductive methodology for acquiring and investing power. It diverts and concentrates the rewards of human productivity. Slavery is a way to undeserved wealth and there are many in the world that would use it if they could get away with it. If a person is not willing to resort to violence to reject the yoke of slavery, one can expect to remain enslaved.

All it would take to put an end to such sophistry on the part of the nit-wits is a policy of selling their children into slavery. When they complain, tell them this:

" So what if we're going to sell your 11 year old daughter to this brothel owner in Mexico? Don't bother calling the police. Since you don't believe in violence, there's nothing they can do to help your daughter.

"The only reason they think violence doesn't settle anything is because they live in a world where the threat of violence isolates them from violence most of the time. As soon as violence becomes real, that notion goes straight out the window.

Violence should not be the first choice. But it is the option that keeps tyrants, despots and oppressors at bay.

Ever wonder why imported Africans were were used as slaves in the Americas more than indigenous peoples? Indigenous Americans almost universally viewed their tribes and cultures as "superior". They were proud of their culture and considered it worth defending. They expected to be tortured and put to death when captured so the concept of pain and punishment was not a threat that could force compliance and labor. They expected and utilized violence. Slavery was not a common practice until the colonists brought slaves from elsewhere.

The next time some nit-wit says "Violence never solves anything/War is not the Answer", ask them if human sovereignty is worth fighting for. Ask them if they would go to war to get their children out of slavery. Ask them if they would fight to keep from being enslaved.

The answer won't be a surprise.
