You Have
19 Slaves Working For You.

Kdo ví co jsem vlastně vyplnil, že jsem takové skóre dostal.
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Maybe I'm just borrowing or leasing them. I'm really not comfortable with someone other than me harassing my slaves.

I would never mistreat them and I would feed them as well as possible.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

If I can't whip them, they don't exist.

I've got 30. This had some interesting information, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

According to this survey, 21 people worked on the stuff I own in the conditions of slavery.
But I'm not really sure about all my answers (especially about food and clothes) and I wonder if this survey shouldn't also take in count some other points, such as :
 - how old is the electronic equipment?
 - where and/or when were bought the clothes?
 - what if I buy coffee or eat food from "fairtrade" brands (if this trade is really as "fair" as these brands claim it)?

I have 25 slaves.  And looking at the state of the house and the garden they are not very hard working.  When I find them I will give them a piece of my mind! 
 
(Edit went down from 30 to 25 due to changes in medicine stuff)

The test is a nonsense - it assumes too much. Based on the results in this thread there are more slaves than there are people on the planet. Current estimates predict (guess) there are between 2.7 and 100 million people working in conditions that could be regarded as slavery - with around 500million people living in the western world enjoying the benfits of that slave-labour we each "own" 1/5th of a slave. It's still not a number to be proud of, it should be zero.

What?

I have never owned any slaves yet so without answering that test I can say mine is zero.

I decided to change my lifestyle overnight and got 158 slaves working for me now.

On the other hand, if I had to believe what I said in this survey, I'm a morbidly obese trillionaire.

Let's have a look at your basement then. Tongue 

Mebbeee our slaves our multi-tasking.  Yes, it is a silly poll, but I thought we could have a little fun with it.
