You don't go to jail for no reason, and you still get livable conditions and square meals. Hell, you can get TV and all sorts of other shit in prison. Prison and slavery are not even floating in the same lake, let alone in the same boat.
I wasn't trying to equate prison with slavery. In some ways slavery is less onerous than being in prison. At least as a slave you get to crap in private.
I was making the point about human adaptability, which is what this latter part of the thread is about.
