The New Chains: How Debt Turned Freedom Into a Lie: You won’t see the shackles. There are no rusted chains, no prison walls. No overseer with a whip or barbed wire fences. But make no mistake—modern slavery is alive and well. It just learned how to wear a suit and smile. Today’s slave doesn’t cry out from a cotton field. They clock in at 9 and barely scrape by at 5. They swipe the card, sign the lease, take the loan—and the trap clicks shut. Debt has become the collar around the neck of the modern worker, and the masters? Banks, governments, and corporate cartels. They sold us dreams, and we bought them on credit.
