If being forced to labor 100% of your time for another is slavery, what is 70% of your time make you?
A free ranged slave I guess.
During slavery, this was an actual thing. Skilled craftsmen slaves (blacksmiths, wainwrights, etc.) would be sent off on their own to the cities and then mail most of the money they earned back home to their masters. So long as they kept the money flowing, they were allowed a measure of independence. That's not so different than taxation.
More money flows through the government than through the actual economy

This is Canadian, probably a province like BC with a high fuel tax, plus our federal GST.
Now do Europe.
