        About .6% of the world is considered as living in modern slavery.

        In say, the feudal era, that percentage would be some 70 or 80 times higher.

        Maybe you should do some reading?

          Sure but …

          I imagine any number of slaves would disagree with you on the downtime.

          The number of slaves extant today is far greater than at any time in history.
