Yep. And there are more actual slaves on earth today than at any other time in history. Yeah, but there's more people than at any other time in history, too. Per capita there'd be less slaves, right?

However, since these slaves are rarely in plain view in americancowboy's world, its probably easy to dismiss them and focus on the niggers what done enslaved other niggers

Yes, percentage-wise, there are less slaves than at any other time in history. But numbers wise, as in sheer numbers of bodies enslaved, there are more than at any other time. I suppose you could take a positive outlook and stick with the percentage being lower. But human misery is human misery (to me, at least), and I have a hard time getting past the fact that the number itself is greater.
