The words "slavery" and "theft" get thrown around a lot these days. But honestly, does slavery still exist in America? How different is our situation today from that of chattel slavery? How similar?

00:00 — Intro.

01:10 — Tyrone wants to know: What's the definition of "slavery"? How about "theft"? Should libertarians still use these words in our messaging?

13:30 — Tyrone introduces a Haman Nature article: "Did they abolish slavery in America? Are you sure? No, seriously... are you sure?" We get to "vote", but is that just an illusion?
