Are these people really too stupid to know the difference between ownership of another human and not receiving a given wage? This is even dumber than right-wingers claiming that taxes are 'slavery'. Even a 100% tax would not be 'slavery', as you are not owned by another person. Nor is military conscription.
Note how you added the word 'virtual'. Indentured servitude is not slavery. Nor would 100% taxation be indentured servitude, since then you simply would not work.
It's lolbertarian nonsense to call everything from taxes to building roads slavery.
Indentured servitude is slavery you smooth brained moron, it just has contractual terms of release, in historic cases.
If the state provides all of my needs but offers zero opportunity for upward mobility or the ability to leave, I am effectively
a serf which is effectively a slave.

Quite a bit of lolbertarian imbecility coming out as soon as their "buildings roads is slavery" dogma is challenged. No, indentured servitude is not slavery, as you cannot control someone's life, kill him for no reason, as you can with slaves.

A serf isn't effectively a slave either. So much historical ignorance from our lolbertarians.
I guess slavery is legal in Switzerland then.

Bull-fucking-shit.
If 100% of my wages are taken away from me by the people in charge, that is tantamount to indefinite indentured servitude aka virtual slavery.
