Captialism has never enslaved anyone.

Never enslaved anyone? You must be a freakin' genius...

Capitalism did and does enslave.  The industrial revolution, childred labored for pennies

Umm, the GOVERNMENT made slavery legal, genius. And state governments prevented people from freeing their slaves, even when they wanted to ) see the history of Virginia before the Civil war), until they decided not to. See, they controlled it from inception to demise.

And, child labor was not slavery. Children were free to leave those jobs if their parents agreed. Unless you think children are slaves to their parents, genius.

. Governments, otoh, have legalized slavery, and the killing of millions ( under Pol Pot, Stalin, HItler and others) all pefectly legal under government laws.

I'll take voluntary association with a corporation any day. Unless it becomes invlountary, like the new health care law, where I am Forced to submit to a corporation. But then who did that ? Why, a government, of course.
