How is "wage slavery" like "chattel slavery"?
Huh? That's like asking how serfdom is like wage slavery. The workers produce surplus value differently in different modes of production. A serf turned over a portion of his crops to the lord and did corvee labor. Slaves produced commodities without receiving a wage. Workers receive a wage that is never equal to the value they produce. Serfdom and slavery belong to the past, while wage labor is the primary form of exploitation today and Obama is the chief executive of the primary capitalist power in the world.
