Best Answer

Answer 1:

Yes. We are required to pay tax, which means that for a given percent of time our labor is not our own, but is owned by another who does with it as they please.

Answer 2:

No. Slavery pertains to more than laboring for another, it involves the state of actually being able to be bought and sold on the open market.
