Slavery

Holding a job.

Having to work.

Going to school.

Marriage.

Life.
Sadly, the vast majority of us are in slavery, whether it be based upon the necessity of a college degree, the expecation that one be in a lifelong relationship, need for financial resources (money), religious beliefs, social viewpoints, or whatever pointless reason.

It's very sad, but very true.

slavery

A method of labor by which the practice of paying a bunch of commuters is circumvented in favor of, historically, importing workers from a different continent, supervising them on sixteen-hour work shifts to ensure they don't run away, providing some place where they could be kept and fed, and exerting corporal punishment when they do something unwanted. This practice has proliferated across the planet throughout history for reasons not quite substantiated.
Throughout history, the human race has resorted to slavery in lieu of its alternatives.

Happiness In Slavery

A song by the industrial metal group Nine Inch Nails, all credits to Trent Reznor.

TheThe video for Happiness In Slavery features performance artist Bob Flanagan ritualistically washing himself and removing all of his clothing before strapping himself into a machine that subsequently tortures, rapes and kills him. Meanwhile, Trent Reznor watches and screams the lyrics from behind a metal gate, which opens at the end of the video, leaving Trent to enter the room himself. The video was universally banned. All footage in the video was real, except for the final killing of Flanagan, as Flanagan often fought the pain of cystic fibrosis by inflicting malicious damage on his own body.

The song, released only on 12" promotional single and the EP "Fixed" (Otherwise known as Halo 5) was not however released on CD and does therefore not have its own Halo Number. Although promotional CD containing only the track as it appears on the Broken EP was released, this too had no Halo Number
