I know. I was just playing around.

If a slave holder has a lot of slaves, it is a very effective means of
producing wealth for the slave holder. Wealth is produced through labor.
Large amounts of 'free' labor produce large amounts of wealth for the
holder of the 'free' labor.


> slavery itself is not **productive** of more wealth than freedom.

Very true. Much more freedom is taken away than wealth is produced.
