If I owned slaves, I only want to recoup around double what I paid for them, beyond that- I don't want to keep them if they genuinely don't want to stay. I'd set such people free, but selling them to someone else would be easier if they're a low earner objectively speaking.
It's nothing personal, the aim after all is to just to get free labor/help right?
Every time you post and I read the words I'm left astonished and flabbergasted, to be honest.
