From Merriam-Webster:

1 : DRUDGERY, TOIL
2 : submission to a dominating influence
3 a : the state of a person who is a chattel of another b : the practice of slaveholding


No, this isn't the 1850s anymore, but slavery still exists in other forms as I see it. And it even exists to a degree in the old-school way, e.g. people that come here that have to pay off their trafficker.

"The slave thinks he is released from bondage only to find a stronger set of chains."--Trent Reznor
