I’m writing under the assumption that my statement is being read by people in Europe and the United States. If you think the lower class in these countries are the slaves in your metaphor, you should really look into how high their standard of living is relative to the global norm.
And there were Roman slaves that enjoyed a higher standard of living relative to the global norm. We have literal white supremacists argue that chattel slavery was good actually because the standard of living blacks experience now is higher than what they would have if we left them alone.
This has nothing to do with the point I’m making. You are really going out of your way to drag racism and slavery into this argument. There must be a language barrier or something.
