it's true, also in regards to slavery, biblical law surrounding slavery is just as moral as modern debt slavery and criminal justice systems. there is in fact, absolutely no moral advancement in slavery from biblical law to modern secular law. criminals are granted lengths of time at discretion of a judge, rather than a fair monetary value equal to their crimes impact, and any acts of violence to criminals is replaced with the disorganized chaotic violence of the prison system. modern debt slaves have one simple new privilege - freedom of mobility, which is actually due to the ability for debtors to easily and quickly buy and sell the rights to your debts, between eachother so you may travel. in fact, in biblical law the debtor was responsible for finding labour for you to perform if you could not find your own to produce money for your debts. now you must find work yourself, and if you can not, punishment simply escalates.
