What once required physical shackles and overseers now achieves the same end through economic subjugation, draining work while keeping people blind to its machinery. If we refuse to name it for what it is, we risk letting that evil flourish once again: only with subtler methods and sanitized rhetoric. To recognize these invisible chains for what they are, we must remove the illusions, unravel the deceit, and confront the philosophical framework that sustains them.
— Neal Flesher, Modern Chains (Chapter 1)
