We can easily quit any job we have, that is the proof that we are not slaves, there is absolutely no other reason required, if you can go to work today, and give your two week notice, that means you are not a slave. Slavery has to be being hold against your wishes and that does exist in some sweatshop parts of the world, just not around where we live. I believe in the power of individual, and the right to be as strong as possible, so many people grew up from nothing and even became presidents, and that means we need to realize things aren't going to be that bad for the individual at all.

Technically it's true, but I can understand why people say it's slavery.

Yeah you can easily quit the job we have, but we as human being need money to pay food, rent, utility bills etc. If you're born from poor parents, you're forced to work to fulfill your needs especially you're not have a degree, in the end you will work in blue collar jobs and it's similar from one to another jobs.

I agree, it depends on your circumstances as an individual. Of course anyone would want to quit their job if they're not being paid enough for their work or let's say environment is being toxic and for whatever reason there is. However, let's think of why people doesn't make immediate decisions; they are considering the circumstances from doing so. In many countries, employment is a problem 'coz competition is getting tighter. It won't be enough to say be more competitive or what not 'coz there are other factors such as connection and referrals to get a job nowadays. Their daily expenses are on the line. Some might say one should have savings and all, but things aren't that simple. Privileges are the bottomline. People are more practical these days which holds them back which is just a valid response. Not to normalize but there just instances some people are left by their circumstances with no options to quit once met with inconvenience from their jobs.
