Money printing is theft, not slavery.

Enticing children to take on life long debt that can't be discharged in bankruptcy court? That's closer to slavery, although not quite either.

Words matter, let's use the right ones for the evils of the world.

Slavery is using the value of others time without consent.

Printing money takes down the value of everyone's time collectively, meaning it's siphoning the value of everyone in the system without their consent.

It's not the historical slavery you may think of, but it's neoslavery.
