History

edit

The history section should be in chronological order. It should go back to at least ancient Babylon where it was common. Also ancient Greece and Rome are technically part of "classical antiquity" (though that term is itself a bit antiquated). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.243.37.238 (talk) 01:51, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

No mention of Student Loans?

edit

Why no mention of Student Loans in this article? They appear to conform to the definitions given of debt bondage here, given that the debt cannot be discharged and can be passed on to one's children, who may also be enslave by the loan.Kingshowman (talk) 16:09, 7 August 2015 (UTC)KingShowmanReply

This has continued to go up and down, for many years, without a single source or citation. It does NOT fit the body of work here and is a ridiculous addition that continues to be removed and added without sourcing, citation or even rationality. Comments such as the debt being passed to children are false entirely. Until someone comes with a real WP standard source for this, it should not be added and continuing to do so constitutes vandalism. Seola (talk) 02:21, 7 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

No mention of debt peonage to credit card companies?

edit

This fits the definition, apart from debts being inherited. Many other systems of peonage don’t include that feature either. Fustbariclation (talk) 15:00, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
