[{"role": "system", "content": "Wage slavery is a pejorative term used to draw an analogy between slavery and wage labor by focusing on similarities between owning and renting a person. It is usually used to refer to a situation where a person's livelihood depends on wages or a salary, especially when the dependence is total and immediate. The term \"wage slavery\" has been used to criticize exploitation of labour and social stratification, with the former seen primarily as unequal bargaining power between labor and capital (particularly when workers are paid comparatively low wages, e.g. in sweatshops), and the latter as a lack of workers' self-management, fulfilling job choices, and leisure in an economy. The criticism of social stratification covers a wider range of employment choices bound by the pressures of a hierarchical society to perform otherwise unfulfilling work that deprives humans of their \"species character\" not only under threat of starvation or poverty, but also of social stigma and status diminution. Similarities between wage labor and slavery were noted as early as Cicero in Ancient Rome. With the advent of the industrial revolution, thinkers such as Proudhon and Marx elaborated the comparison between wage labor and slavery, while Luddites emphasized the dehumanization brought about by machines.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I have 10 years experience at my company, yet somebody new just got promoted."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "gosh i bet it's frustrating!! my life depends on wages or a salary so i feel you"}, {"role": "user", "content": "When did people start thinking it's ok to pay slave wages?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "similarities between wage labor and slavery were noted as early as cicero in ancient rome"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Did people also criticize wage slavery in the past?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "sure did! wage slavery has been used to critisize exploitation of labour"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I just don't get it.
