    What about indentured servitude? Not that I think that this is going to lead to proving that women should be paid the same as man--I'm just getting a clarification because I'm interested.

    EDIT: Also, indentured servitude probably is an issue of the morality of debt much more than it is an issue of labor.

    Indentured servitude as it has been practiced in the past is basically just slavery. But it's a grey area. I think that investing in people in the form of buying shares of their future income (in exchange for providing education or training in a field) would go a long way in pulling the poorest countries out of poverty, but many would call that a form of indentured servitude.
