You fail to understand the meaning of "slavery"
Slavery is forced servitude.
People are not forced to go into debt

The huge debt binge in the US (and Europe)
in the last couple of decades
was because people believed that borrowing
was the road to riches
borrowing because you believe that the assets will
grow in value faster than the interest cost
If the theory is valid the more you borrow the more you make

Today after the fall of value in housing, pension and stock
most of the public no longer believes that theory

the only ones still operating under that theory today are
the ones borrowing to buy gold and other commodities
that are perceived to be rapidly increasing in price

When those bubbles pop there will be darn few left willing
to borrow as a means of winning the lottery

You only need your eyes and a full appraisal/analysis of where we are
now to realize that, no obfuscation necessary!
