Slavery never went away. It just became wage slavery.
Slavery is the ultimate endgame of a capitalist. It is what this country is continuing to push for. You are allowed to own a fraction of your labor, and they will continually find ways to reduce and box in what you are allowed to do with that fraction.
I would agree, but it allows the proletariat a small wiggle room of control because it allows them to have a tiny fragment of capital. Capitalists want chattel slavery even if it costs more because it's total control. That is why they have continually tried to restrict what people can do with their slice, to the point that their slice is meaningless.

take it from a former slave
Wage slavery is cheaper than chattel slavery.
