No, the vast majority of the states still have slave labor. The 13th amendment aboloshed slavery "except as punishment for a crime." Last I checked only six states had changed their state constitutions to abolish all slavery, even in prison, though several others had ballot measures to do the same, so maybe there's more now.
It's also important to note that while middle class white people might have had an existence like the image states, it was only possible by pushing the failures of capitalism onto minorities, mostly Black people.
This is why I only give plot hooks, not planned out plots. I figure out how things would go without intervention, then see how the players fuck it up by their actions.
I'm a diabetic and got into a habit of drinking a lot before I was diagnosed. Then I got put on a medication that works by shunting sugar into my urine, which increases my frequency of urination and therefore my thirst. I also have hyperhydrosis, which makes me sweat way more than normal, so I need to replace the liquids more than normal, and the medication I'm on for it has a side effect of further increasing how much I drink.
All combined, I drink way more than normal people. A strange side effect is that, since I produce so much more urine than a normal person, my bladder has stretched to much larger than normal. Most people have a maximum capacity of 1000mL in their bladder, i have closer to 2000mL.
I only drink diet soda, so it's not impacting my sugar. I've tried drinking water, but I need some kind of flavor, and seltzer just tastes hitter and gross to me.
He's not cured, he's being treated. And he's not just being released to the generap public, he's still going to be living in a group home, with managed care and accountability.

“If we suddenly kicked out all of the people here, the undocumented, our dairy farms would collapse,” one lawmaker said. “We have to come up with a solution.”
I think their point is more that it's easier for an undocumented individiual to disappear than for a documented one. They're already undocumented, so they're used to operating without going through proper channels. They have no connection to the vehicle, and thus no insurance, and thus the person being hit has no recourse for getting their own vehicle fixed.
Now, letting them get licenses would presumably come with them also getting insurance, but I feel like this is just a band-aid on a much bigger problem.
I mean, yeah, that's why I said it wouldn't work. Maybe if there was a website that was big enough that it would drive people to use non-WEI browsers if they couldn't access it, but any website big enough to do that would also want WEI for ad venue.
Was reminded how Epstien not killing himself was/is so accepted yet it’s still a conspiracy theory. Is there any similar ones you guys believe to be completely true ?
Plus there's a multitude of studies showing that people work far less than 8 hours a day, even if they are physically present at the job. I doubt productivity actually drops at all.
