25. Social Practice / A. Freedoms / 1. Slavery

23811	If effort is from necessity rather than for a good, it is slavery [Weil]
	Full Idea: To strive from necessity and not for some good - ...that is always slavery.
	From: Simone Weil (Gravity and Grace (9 extracts) [1943], p.180)
	A reaction: It is usual to see the possibility of anarchism as the starting point for political thinking, but I think for Weil the state of slavery has that role.
