There's slavery in damn near every country on the planet. There always has been, and always will be.

The most prevalent form is sexual slavery, and there's not a corner of the planet free from this blight.

What can individuals do about it? Not much really. Unless you know any actual slavers, and kill them. This might not mean anything in the large scheme of things, but it will mean the world to any slaves you are able to liberate.

Yes it does , in almost every country and it present itself in many different forms
Child pornography and molestation and slavery exist in many south american counties, chinese and so on .
Ordered bride , you can go a website and if you have 5 thousand and up dollars you can purchase a wife , people think those women do rhis voluntarily but sometimes their not even if they are is not because they want to but because they feel it's a way out of their misery it's very populatr in Russia 18 year old women who are often under age get sold to ancient man to be wed and come to the US
In america it's no longer Black and White now it's rich and poor if you do not have money you can't have proper doctor care , most jobs do not offer insurance , proper education most foreign countries t pay for college and doctors visit when they pay way less taxes then us , illegual immigrants many people entere this country to get or have a better life because of the structure of their govt etc and end up slaving in a dead end job to only acquire a min of income and so on to me that 's a form of slavery oh i almost forgot the legual system you have criminals with diplomas dictating how and what we should do ? once again therich and poors if a celebrity commits a crime and can buy their way out it happens everyday but the same crime is committed by an lower class individual they have to live with a record and be drug in the slums for the rest of their lives
this is my opinions not necessarily facts and not necessarilly a generality but some points are valid
I think there are many other form of reform slavery but those are the ones i can think of right now
sorry about my spelling i was rushing i'm at work Lol
What can do to stopp it i don' t know ? that's up to those criminals and politician with diplomas to solve the problem i wouldn't hold my breath though

Absolutely, there is slavery today, as long as there are power hungry people who are above the law, or where there are no laws to break, there always will be. I don't know the specific people or places, but it is a fact that people are abducted and sold into slavery (children too) I think I read something about this happening in the Dominican Republic, and other third world countries.

It is not like it was a couple of hundred years ago but it still exists.

Many people who enter the US illegally are held by the people who brought them into the country until they can work off the cost of getting into the US. The thing is that the debt is never paid, so this it really just a form of slavery.

Look at Africa honey. What's going on over there? Things such as slavery and worse. There's probably more "worse". Their own countrymen killing and rapeing women and children. In my opinion there is nothing to do unless the U.S. wants to butt into another countrys business again. Of course there are always the "just 20 cents a day" programs that SAY they are helping.

Look at the simple everyday vans, trucks, etc... that get pulled over and there are 15 children who can't speak english in the back of it. They sure aren't carpooling. Not trying to sound pissy, thinking about these things get me going. It's a cruel, cruel, world sometimes. Actually all the time...we just don't always see it.

Slavery in one form or another is everywhere. It is eternal as is mastership. I do not want to ease the suffering of most oppressed peoples but rather wish to eliminate them or oppress them myself. I do want to destroy the oppressors of the best elements of the Caucasoid race.

Certainly! In many countries it exists as we know it from movies and history books. Times changed, and so slavery! Many people work for hours and hours, even got two jobs, mortgages to pay, and get low salaries without the chance to get better jobs. Isn't that slavery?

Believe it or not, the US still have slavery. Some families would lie to foreign girls (most if not all Africans), saying that they could go to college here and stay with them, when in fact they want some one to clean their house and do their hair, free of charge.

All countries of Europe, USA, Canada and Japan condone slavery. Anyway, it has never been abolished, it merely transformed it's character and assumed a more acceptable toga-migrant workers especially the ones without papers and then forced sex workers.

In its earlier form, the West took slaves to western countries but these days, they have enslaved the whole of the third world especially African countries in situ ie in their respective countries.

Yes I think it does still exist. In many ways wage labor resembles slavery- admittedly not the traditional kind.
