i understand that, which is why I posed it as only a renter with no debt is not a slave.

i don't buy things on credit except things i truly cannot afford to pay cash for like house, car, education. the only thing left on the three is the house. Because there is a material benefit is the only reason i entered into such a deal. i ensured that i could maintain my monthly payments at a fixed rate for 30 years, whereas a renter I was guaranteed that it would go up with some regularity.

actually how can you make your own rules? as a landlord, I decide what can and cannot be in my renter's apartment. I specifically do not allow dogs, waterbeds and aquariums.

so it's the taxes that make you enslaved? again, this makes me understand then the only "free" people are children, who pay no rent, pay no taxes, they only are subject to the rules and regulations of their parents which revokes that "free" status.
