Probably not.

Think about it. Youd have to feed them shelter them and keep them in good health (else they are useless).

Keep waging bois.

I heard the figure was around $10k per, present day dollars of course.

Which makes sense because everyone was poor as fuck back in those days.

Minimum wage is $8 an hour. How much does the wagie spend on living every year?

>implying slavery was ever really abolished
The jews just needed a way to fuck over the white plantation owners. They made it illegal to own black people, but not to enslave people as wagecucks who only get paid enough for food/shelter/clothing/etc/everything a slave's owner would have to pay for anyway.

There is no difference between a wage earner and a slave.

The slave is a product of deflationary systems.

The wagie is a product of inflationary systems.

Slaves had better healthcare, housing, food, and community than the wageslave of today.

The big thing is that traditional slaves aren't able to switch jobs, get better at their jobs (in hopes of promotion), or strike out on their own at any time.

Look at the things that are preventing that for wageslaves and you'll see the master's whiphand.

>Slaves never got promoted
>Slaves could never improve there skills
>Slaves never became masters

If a slave didn't like the options he had he could always fall on his sword. No one would stop him.

The wagie can't even kill himself. It's illegal.

Wageslaves is shit to be honest but no dude slave are slave they no right for shit not like any wagslave out there can hire a layer to protect them when they need. They can use insurance but slave tho. Use your brain anons if y have one

Yeah I've heard $10k-$40k and also some information about average cost of yearly labor multiplied out is like the uniform pricing throughout history.

tbqh if slavery was still around Id save up to get a female slave since robot waifus dont exist.

I looked up how much roman slaves cost out of curiosity.
>The price of a slave cited elsewhere are between 2000 sestertii (4400 USD) for an unskilled male worker and 25000 sestertii(55000 USD) for a pretty girl.

This, wageslaving pushes the upkeep costs onto the worker for maximum profit.

>what is inflation
Moving up the ladder is an illusion if you're still buying the same amount of big macs for your buck after 5 years.

A low-single-digits amount of inflation boosts overall economic growth and therefore your investment returns, so that problem solves itself over time.

Unless you're a slave incapable of long term planning and spend every penny you earn.

Lol /pol/ thinks it would be a perfect world with slaves but did know that presidents had black kids and their wifes and sisters in laws would sneak out back to get a 5 minute ride from black boy.

No its actually less which is why it went out of existence. Killed by the industrial revolution making a cheaper labor than slavery. Imagine
