You're not understanding his position. You're arguing that slavery is bad, which he agrees with. His argument isn't that slavery is a moral good but is a requirement to prevent the worst form happening but if given the option he would rather live in a world where slavery would never naturally happen as a means of production as we have things in place to prevent the worst from happening. There's a very important connection you've missed from what he's said that you've not picked up on yet so I'm interested to see how this conversation goes.
You need to take the time to ask people what their positions are. The real conversation you should be having here is if slavery of the few is justified to ensure the survival of the many.
why are you atheist? why are you theist?
