More From Carl Sagan

As for slavery, there is no need for me to speak of its bad aspects. the only thing requiring explanation is the good side of slavery. i do not mean indirect slavery, the slavery of proletariat; i mean direct slavery, the slavery of the blacks in surinam, in brazil, in the southern regions of north america. direct slavery is as much the pivot upon which our present-day industrialism turns as are machinery, credit, etc. … slavery is therefore an economic category of paramount importance.
