What is the definition of slavery?
Slavery is the condition of being owned or controlled by another.Actual slavery is involuntary servitude as the property of someone else. Slaves are not free, independent individuals, but are subjugated or regulated by their owners. Slaves are normally used as unpaid workers or laborers.The idea of slavery is often used metaphorically (as is imprisonment) when someone feels trapped or controlled by their circumstances. E.g. "a slave to his job", "a slave to video games".
What harm does slavery do to both the slave and its owner?
Did'NT happen that way; slaves do the work owners get the money. there will always be slavery, as long as there is a minimum wage. Slavery continuse to this very day in industry; They just changed the name, called them sweat shops. Why did industry move American jobs overseas? Money, labour was cheeper! A natural function in civilization: rich get richer, poor get children, to maintain a solid work force; to increase the riches of the rich. It's a natural division, as long as there is government. How would you like to slave: no pay; megar subsistance; and flogged if you don't do the job correctly?

Is the southern flag bad?
It isn't inherently bad. It represents the Confederacy of the southern states, a part of American history. Many people view it as a symbol of southern pride. Many people also believe the confederate flag to be a symbol of slavery and racial prejudice or even hate. Where people miss the point on whether the flag is racist is they don't understand the flag of which they complain. The DIXIE flag( blue bars with stars ) was the BATTLE flag of the South, not the official flag of the Confederacy Many men who were not slave owners or opposed to slavery fought for the South,i.e., General Lee. Just because a racist waves it doesn't make " it" racist. It is a part of the history of the South. If you want to carry racism to its illogical extreme, I would suggest that we remove all crucifixes from America as it is the symbol of the KKK which they take delight in setting on fire.
