I think the problem is that modern employment is just out of control hours wise and policy wise. 8 hours plus commute is just simply too long. No one cares how much work you do but just that you are there.
That is what makes me think it is slavery.
It also makes me think that it is a way to keep the masses under control. For years now I have had open internet at work and suddenly we got a filter. Do they really think that is going to inspire me to do more work? Heck no. It obvious must be so that we won't be able to do things at work and will have to do them at home thus making us have less free time.
My workplace is completely insane. Those who are idiots get the promotions. Anyone who is helpful... is merely tolerated. Typically the idiots are the ones who are irresponsible. But usually the ones that don't know how to think. They won't be a danger, they will follow directions. They will have the 2.5 kids even though they can't afford them. They will be rewarded for being a good little slave.
