Unfortunately, this phrase certainly applies to the majority of people in modern society. Most people find jobs simply to maintain life, though not fully being conscious of the fact that they spend most of their life on that job they don't like, I believe that makes them slaves.

Most people are ok with doing the same job in the same position for 20 years, they don't even bother thinking of something bigger, they're settled, they have money to provide for their family, and have no other need. A lesser % tries to achieve something bigger in a particular field, climb the career ladder, get better positions with higher salaries and better recognition, and that is exactly the concept you described - trying to be better slaves.

Only a very small % of people actually think of existential problems, have bigger aims and realize that there's much more to this life than just going to your job, these people try to create something of their own. implement new ideas and have a thrive to learn and develop.
True in our country a developing country . Our society is more comfortable being slaves. Every morning he went to work late into the night for something called money. From there they have no money or even financial freedom . All his time wasted just work and work. That's why entrepreneurs from China love to hire them than people in their own country. All back to their respective life choices. although there are also some who think of becoming a slave king.

That's why I don't want to work a 9 to 5 for company, because doing this for years to earn money is no different from slaves. In fact, many parents
make their children go to school and get degrees just to be able to work in companies, which end up being slaves. Many large factories in
developed countries prioritize employees from third world countries, so they can pay low salaries and work tight hours. So slavery is still
happening today, it's a very sad reality. Especially with the current pandemic situation, in my country I found some companies reduce their
employees salaries by 30%, while working hours are added. With the reason the company suffered a loss, so it was forced to reduce the salaries of
its employees. Some companies are taking advantage of the pandemic situation to generate large profits by minimizing expenses.
One of them is reducing the salaries of employees quite drastically, even though the company did not experience a loss.

The concept of "slavery" is perceived by many in a very diverse way, and is often mistaken ... Some consider those who are servants to be slaves, belongs to another person and carries out his orders. Someone thinks that slavery is work for a company .. Someone considers slaves of religious people - slaves of religions ... You can also consider a hereditary doctor a slave of family traditions ... But this is more a play on words, and some kind of manipulation of data, rather than real slavery. Slavery is a state of mind. This is when you consider someone your master, when you deny freedom, deny independence, deny the right to make a decision, because "the owner is smarter, let him decide how it will be." These manifestations speak of slavery. And these manifestations can be in the employee of the corporation, for whom his leader may be a tyrant who got to a managerial position by accident. And if an employee resignedly and silently fulfills everything, even the most idiotic orders, of this leader - he is a SLAVE! If your parents tell you "no, you will not be an engineer, you will be a doctor like our whole dynasty," and you silently abandon your idea and your goals for the sake of your parents' complexes - you are a SLAVE. The question is not in the position of a person in society and the world, but in his views, thoughts, self-respect, ... A person can be shackled, but not a slave, or he can walk in suits from Brioni, ride a Maybach, but be a SLAVE!
By the way, many regimes are trying to raise just slaves - people without their own opinion, without the right to vote, without the right to choose ... Such people do not need shackles and overseers, after 2-3 generations, each member of such a society becomes a "slave-overseer" for everyone around!

The faith and education of a country, a city, or a family play a key role.
For example, if most people in a family are teachers or doctors by profession, then most of the next generation of the family will also choose the same profession.
This is a product of education and cultural attributes.
They can't see a larger field of view, so their thoughts and choices are confined to a circle.
If we stick to what the country teach us and what the we were taught in school then we are doomed. Remember that the government won't teach things that will overthrow them, remember how they're not talking about school shootings and gun control in the US and how they always tell the stories where the US was supposed to win? The owners of this world don't want a critical thinking public, it's against their interest.

It is for this reason that the corruption of the system starts from the family and from the school, it is always about doing the following steps:

1.-Study and train.
2.-Try to follow the example of their relatives (Doctors, Doctors, Engineers) according to the trend.
3.-Be professional and work for companies.

The mere fact of thinking like that is already being a slave of the system, it will always be like that, when you think that way you cannot be a millionaire, to be rich you have to take other types of risks, or at least train with a tendency to the economy, to business to be an employer and not an employee, that's where the changes begin.

Slavery never ended. It was just renamed.

In the ancient Rome, if a slave behaved too well or paid the price, he could earn/buy his/her freedom.

It is still the same. If you work hard and please certain people (corporates) they give you enough money so you won't have to work (be a slave) anymore.

But if nobody works, who is going to produce stuff? So, as you see somebody has to make them nike shoes and work in the iphone factories.

When you gather enough money you become one of those slave-masters and the world keep making fresh stuff because there is a new slave born every second.

This is a sentence I recently heard on a TV series I was watching that made me think of my own stance in life. Am I striving to become the master of slaves?  Perhaps those who climb the corporate ladder think in those terms? Are we creating our own cryptocurrency just to be our own masters or are we actually seeking to become the new masters of the new slaves? BTW I am very interested in knowing if this is a quote from anyone famous or just part of the script.
This phrase was something deep and made me think. In reality, almost all slaves or at the bottom of the ladder always want to be at the top.. at the top of the other. And someone at the top comes from being slave.
Or if you think it more deeply, it can reflect on anyone's life. A slave or poor people always want to have the chance, freedom, superiority, the opportunity and everything that a slave master has so their eyes are always in that, in their goal.

We are oppressed and we want to be free from it. Usually, there are two options: to separate from the world or to become a new ruling class.
It's like escaping from life to become a monk or become a company director.
An educated slave will think about spiritual practice, but an ordinary slave will only seek to enslave others to himself.

Although everyone thinks that cryptocurrency is freedom, everyone cannot control cryptocurrency.
Point of correction Kiley33 bitcoin cannot be controlled or regulated by anyone, that's the freedom Bitcoin offers to the world. Satoshi nakamoto was a revolutionary and the creation of a decentralized currency was his gift to the cause of true freedom. Cbdc on the other hand are a different matter, cbdc are as bad as fiat

It's all about what you do with power that determines whether you are a master or a leader. Not everyone who was able to command a multitude of culture and people did so in hopes of enslaving them in the process. Sure the majority may do but there are still notable exceptions to this question. Nonetheless, as a considered "slave" since I haven't created my own cryptocurrency and have no plans in doing so in the future, yet I am relatively faring well and couldn't wish for more other than hoping the cryptocurrency industry flourishes more and touch more lives in the future.
Although everyone thinks that cryptocurrency is freedom, everyone cannot control cryptocurrency.
Like everyone, everyone wants to be a ruler. .
Real freedom is not something you can get by being a slave owner, nor is it something you can easily get by being a ruler. .
But freedom is very simple, depending on how you understand your freedom,
I feel that life is very good now. Family and friends are all around. It's  to have dinner together and discuss the cryptocurrency market. This simple happiness is enough, so we can simply enjoy life.
Responsibility and morals is what keeps everyone tethered from freedom. To rule, you are given the responsibility to take care of lives under your morals. This could also be seen in cryptocurrency when someone releases their own cryptocurrency and garners interest and purchase from people. In some way or form everyone is a slave in this world, so it's not like you can't really get away from it. What matters at least for me is the fact that through cryptocurrency, and the technology that is behind it we are given a promise and a hope that the future wouldn't be as awful as our present.

That's right. Many are not aware of this. Even I also did not realize that I was enslaved by something I had created, namely emotions and desires. When I entered the crypto circle, I aim to get money, if you have got money I want to buy what I want. Unconsciously I was enslaved by my desire.

Desire, of course, controls our emotions, this is because we are never satisfied and grateful for the circumstances we have, whatever we have will not bring happiness as long as we do not have gratitude, the best way is to control emotions and share with those in need.
some say life without ambition is empty....The human heart is initially empty but is filled with pride, desire and also greed by the ages.  being ordinary means deciding to be a slave forever, if you are not ambitious then close your ears and do what you think is good for you even if it means you become a dive slave.

This is where irreverence comes in on the part of people who open their minds, I think the fact that there are so many slaves is because it was instilled in this way from training, I am in favor of believing in the philosophy of Robert Kiyosaki, which says that the greatest of all corrupt is the system in which we grew up, an educational system that was training us, making us professionals to be "Employees" of companies with 14-16 hours of work, but not to teach us about business, about investments, I think that to a large extent the BTC economy makes all this possible, at this moment due to the pandemic many people have woken up due to the need, I think it is a matter of time that many more people realize that the entire system It is corrupt.

If the educational system changed to teach us to be employers, to teach us to make money and to do business, everything would change if the system were more effective.

This image illustrates the power of Bitcoin, how it has and will liberate the masses from the slave masters. Last year businesses all over the world were forced to shut down, economies were disrupted by covid-19. We were made to believe this was for our safety and we bought it. That's how powerful these guys are

Almost everyone is a slave, even crypto holders are slaves. Humans are enslaved by the senses, desires, and emotions. Humans begin to get used to the situation that befell them. we start to compromise with the circumstances. Humans are still slaves. we are enslaved by pseudo ideologies. We are enslaved by outdated dogmas. We too are enslaved by outdated ideas and beliefs.
In an African home, when you are amazed by a statement, they tend to cut a kolanut for you. That's exactly what I feel like doing right now. Your statement is super.
Do you know that if at all, those holding bitcoin never had idea of what it was and they were raised by Centralised system of life without any form of decentralized exposure, they will never and wouldn't accept take bitcoin.
If CZ was raised to be a politician with an ambition to become a president of China, he will hardly think of bitcoin talkess of the market place.

Everyone state themselves independent, but there is dependence. This dependence is the reason for the existence of different forms of opportunity. When our need increases, automatically we look for the better opportunity. In the modern society people are making themselves adoptive to situation to survive. Very few are passionate and following their dreams. Though we do the job that we don't like, at some point we'll be mastering it. With cryptocurrency we've got more masters, but people are in need. This is what makes path for existence of more cryptocurrency.

A slave is only a slave in his mind. The freedom of a slave begins when he stops to see himself as a slave. You could take the chains off him and set him free but he remains a slave because it has become his identity. He knows how to be nothing else. This is same for people who are stuck on traditional currencies, they don't want to open their mind to Bitcoin or any crypto currencies because they remain slaves to the old master.
Bitcoin offers freedom to the masses. We are modern slaves to the government and the banks. One spends years working one's back off to pay mortgage to the bank. I truly understood the power of money when I learned about bitcoin. During war, countries would first of all block the trading routes of their enemy in order to weaken their economy and starve them. Money can liberate and enslave
