### I am looking forward to the creation of ego-syntonically
enslaveable persons. I have no problem with keeping sentient,
self-aware and socially aware slaves, as long as their relationship
with me is fully accepted by them. I would insist on acceptance and
personal devotion to me, their master, for two reasons: I have a vague
feeling of ickiness about owning a slave who was deprived of freedom
against its wishes, and, perhaps more importantly, unwilling slaves
are likely to begrudge effort and dream of rebellion.

I wonder what will be the future ratio of freeminds and slaves. Robin
thinks that poor but free uploads will teem in their trillions but I
surmise that slaves will form the bulk of the population.
