You maybe never heard of the Jews being in slavery to the Egyptians?

The Roman coliseum was built by 20,000 Jewish slaves that Roman emperor Titus purchased.

Also if you google up ancient Greece and slaves...you will see that most work was done by slaves in Greece.

I thought that everyone knew that ancient wonders of the world were built by slave labor? Slavery didn't get started with black people being slaves. There were thousands of years of slavery before that.

Anyway Paul...you're wrong. The wonderful governments just taxing people didn't build that stuff (though they probably did buy the slaves with the taxes they put on occupied countries_.
