Modern exploitation, slavery and monarch is such we cannot see, nor we have ability to understand. For they are formless, invisible. for instance last month when i visited my uncle in Taplejung. One morning an old man with tattered cloth came and start to converse with my uncle;
Bhai, there is a new NGO who yesterday told us not to carry load unless hirer pay Rs --- per kilo, which they says is limited wage fixed by Govt.
Hearing him my uncle at once got heated and shouted to old man "then ask them for job.
No, Bhai i was only saying, 'old man said out of guilt.
I am paying 80 only, if you are willing then even i can hire you for next time. 'My uncle replied,
And what else porter can do, he have to agree. If not for himself but for children.
Above example is very minor case, compare to various other, some we don't know actually is exploitation. After all employer is paying in regular basis and employee has sense that it is his duty to oblige each and everything.
Footnote:
we have to agree capitalism has brought prosperity to world, given us things that we can't dream of 50 years back, lifted millions of family from poverty to middle class. But middle of this all glitter of light, where only white have to be install, there is more powerful, larger volt- black lights are installed and hidden beneath the ground where white light cannot reach.
