The animals that we have been breeding for ages are pretty far removed from their wild counterparts of yore.

Also, there's a lot of homeless people that would live better as my slaves, but you'd probably still rather see them free.

I don't think this is sound reasoning as the main issue with slavery is the abuse of the slaves. What GP is saying is that animals are more abused by nature than by people. If the same could be proven that homeless would be better as slaves (ie. thag they would not be whipped and worked to death) then that would in fact be better but since we can't make that guarantee and history has generally shown otherwise we do not allow it. There is also the fact that it would normalize slavery in general.

Or better yet, we just don’t force the people one way or the other.
