I understand your sentiment, but I wouldn't liken working a fast food or retail job 40 hours a week to working the fields every day in the hot sun and under the crack of a whip.

Some people are still forced to work under the sun. But yeah, crack of a whips was worse. They are a bit nicer to slaves nowadays.
