Slavery is not a choice. You and your family are put into slavery and you are threatened with their lives, if you flee. The slavers will beat them if you disobey. You are under this moronic impression that an enslaved person lives in a vacuum,
Where do you go if you are fleeing enslavement? In the USA there wasn't many places to go, and only a small number of slaves ever made it to Canada, and that was only with the help of people who were against slavery. Otherwise, the odds of you dying, having your family split up, killed, maimed, or beaten, was the end result of your attempt to flee subjugation. Thus why many did not attempt to flee, but hope that in some future date, freedom might be attainable. THAT is looking to the future, not your absurd reasoning that fleeing NOW was the only choice.
Your view of slavery is fucking STUPID, and based on colossally thoughtless wilfull ignorance.
