Fair enough. I'd say there is some sort of middle ground with that statement.

Also:

"Within the next generation I believe that the world's leaders will discover that infant conditioning and narco-hypnosis are more efficient, as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons, and that the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience."

Aldous Huxley to George Orwell after 1984 came out.

Slavery was finally outlawed there in 1962, however slavery unfortunately is a religious right to those who are extreme.

There's that.

Also, (and many Gov's find ways around things like this) but cheap labour can also constitute boderline slavery (sweat shops, cheap labour workers like the poor woman in the article).

There was a story a long time ago in the Calgary paper about a local oil-worker guy who came back from a job in Saudi. He was caught with booze or suspected of having it, they knocked out his teeth with a hammer and ordered him out of the country.

But since she's a maid, and the master's filthy rich... I predict blood money, which sharia allows, would settle it.

That's no different than settling out of court etc (for us over here).

Still, it shouldn't even get to that point obviously.

Settling out of court for crimes? This isn't a civil case.
