Basic background:

In early 2000, a study showing that there were some where around 100,000 “slaves” in the US at this time was released. About half of these were in the sex trades, and another quarter were domestic servants. It was estimated that the modern slave trade was a 7 billion dollar a year industry, all of it un-taxed, of course. To deal with this issue the US Congress passed, and the President signed the “White Slavery Act of 2000″, legalizing and most importantly, allowing for the taxation of this trade. The basic provisions were that a White Slaver must have a federal warrant (also called a slaver’s license) to perform his trade. This had a start up cost of $5,000 and a yearly renewal fee of $1,000 and could only be issued after the person had passed a back ground check, mainly to remove drug dealers. Women could be enslaved via 3 routes

1) Volunteering for enslavement. This required a sworn statement and a drug test from the woman. The slaver would be required to pay a $200.00 federal slave tax on this transaction.
2) Commitment by Relative or “Person of Personal Contact”. In this case, a parent, husband, or “person of personal contact” could sell the woman to a slaver. A federal court case had held that a “person of personal contact” was some one that had performed consenting vaginal sex with the subject at least 3 times in the last 30 days. This was widely referred to as the “boy friend enslavement clause”. This lead to more and more young women doing either oral or anal sex with their boyfriends, as a way to avoid the possibility of the “breaking up via a slaver” action from happening. Despite this it was estimated that roughly 7% of all relationships that failed, with women in the 18-23 age bracket, ended with her enslavement. Strip clubs started to offer “enslave your bitch and get free drinks and dances” specials. Even though it was called “boyfriend enslavement” there were many cases of lesbian relationships ending in enslavement, in particular in several North East states and California, where the local laws defined sexual acts some what differently. In those cases, any vaginal penetration, to include with a “strap on” or even with a hand held dildo counted as sex for reasons of this act. Exceptions were made in the cases where a monetary transaction were involved, meaning that prostitutes ‘Johns’ and porn stars couldn’t claim their partners in this context. A later federal appeals court ruling on the “monetary transaction” clause held that any “item of value” would trigger this exemption, which had the effect of ending “Ladies nights” in clubs, because club going girls that wanted to pick up a guy (or get pick up) made sure that he bought her at least one drink before they left. The slaver was required to pay a federal tax of %25 of the sale value of the slave or $150.00, which ever was more.
3) By action of a magistrate. The act allowed that “the several states and lesser jurisdictions” may alter their penal and civil code to allow a judge to enslave a women as punishment for “selected crimes”. In this case they newly enslaved women was to be sold at public auction, with only those person with a federal warrant being allowed to bid. 50% of the sale price was to be passed on the Federal treasury in this case, the other 50% going to the jurisdiction that did the enslaving. This lead to most states and several cities enacting laws that allowed for enslavement on charges as minor speeding tickets, however “Public Drunk” and “Creating an Attractive nuisance” where the most common, along with the obvious prostitution and drug offenses.

An important point, the act provided for the enslavement of women, and went to a great deal of trouble to define it.   Only biological females could be converted.

Once a woman was enslaved and the proper fees were paid, she became a “person of limited rights” and could be resold to any one, with a 15% tax on the sales price. However the new owners could not re-sell her, except to a licensed slaver. Basically, any slave transaction required that either the buyer or the seller be a licensed slaver. The term “person of limited rights” was, at best, a misnomer. About the only right left to an enslave woman was that her children were born free. All other rights, be they financial and property rights, civil rights or basic human right had been removed. This means that an owner could, if he or she wanted, torture or kill a slave, with nothing other than his or her code of ethics to stop them. This, of course, meant that a great number of slaves were tortured or killed. A fairly large “Pay Per View” industry arose for torture and snuff shows, and Hollywood, as a whole, embraced the enslavement of actresses. Within a year of passage of the act, over 40% of all screen and TV actresses were enslaved, and by 2004 the number had risen to nearly 70%, with it reaching almost 90% of those under the age of 35.

There were, of course, women and girls that were exempted from becoming slaves.
1) Pregnant women and mothers of minor children were not allowed to be enslaved.
2) Girls under the local age of consent could not be enslaved. Once enslaved, they, of course, could be transported to a state where they were under the age of consent and stay a slave.
3) Men that had a reported history of abuse could not enslave their victims. This had the more or less expected side effect of tripling the number of reported cases of domestic abuse.
4) Sellers could also be required to pass a drug screen, but that was optional and was to be established by the states. Some states, those with strong “war on drugs” laws made it a requirement, others made it a “random” test.

One “positive” aspect of not having most laws apply to the “persons of limited rights” was that neither federal or state drug laws applied to them any more. This one aspect alone accounted for roughly 50% of the voluntary enslavement in the year 2003.

Voluntary enslavement accounted for about 20% of the enslaved women. Sales by family accounted for another 40%, and “boyfriend enslavement” accounted for 30%, with the remaining 10% being by judicial action. This was the nation wide averages for the year 2003, however in some states judicial action would, at times, account for over 50% of the enslave women. Gulf Coast states during “spring break” being the most obvious and famous, but ski areas during winter breaks also had high rates of judicial enslavement.

Shortly after this bill had passed, of course, the “Mad Cow” scares started. Congress passed the “Alternate Meat Source Inspection Act of 2001″. In it, they directed that the FDA was to draw up the requirements to inspect and grade “Non traditional meat animals”. The act explicitly allowed “person of limited rights” as a “Non traditional meat animal”. With the passage of this act, many custom butcher shops obtained federal slaver warrants, so that they could directly buy “meat slaves” and many other established working relationships with white slavers in their towns or cities to buy unwanted slaves, or to act as “disposal” plants for slaves that had been killed for one reason or an other.

Tapes of young coeds being arrested on various “public drunk” or “creating an public disturbance” charges, then taken to special courts where they were enslaved and sold off became some of the best sellers for the various “Girls Gone Wild” companies.

A lawsuit brought against one of the tape companies that alleged that they had set up the girls to be arrested was rejected on the grounds that while that tape company did in fact own the bar in question, had “all you can drink” specials for young women and had called the police to the bar, it was ruled that the young women in question had entered into the bar of their own free will, and that there were warning signs that this was a “public drunk enslavement community” within sight of the bar entrance and with these things taken into account their family had no grounds to sue. In the discovery portion of this lawsuit it was found that not only was the bar that sold the girls the drinks that lead to their being enslaved, the bar that bought them at the public auction were all owned by the same media company. The establishments that bought the slaves used them as wait staff, cage dancers, and sexual favors for customers (in so called “fellatio kiosks”). There were cases where girls would enter a bar, become drunk, be arrested, convicted (based on blood alcohol test evidence), put up for auction and be bought by the same bar they entered as free women, all within a 8 hour time frame. Many of these unfortunate co-eds found that being enslaved by a “bar and grill”, and not making enough “tips” (which were taken from them at the end of each shift) was a way to win a quick trip the spit and being the daily special. After a few years, however, this practice lead to a sharp decline in co-eds coming to some towns during spring and winter breaks, and it became much less common.

In addition to the “bar of enslavement” trick, which only really worked in the towns in the party area, many smaller towns “on the route” adopted “zero tolerance” speed zones. A popular “trick” speed limit for these towns would be 2-3 MPH under the “normal” highway speed limit. The ticketing officer, of course had full control over who got a “warning” and who had to go down town to see “the judge”. Oddly, fat guys in Semi rigs tended to get warnings. A young female driver on the other hand, could pretty much count on seeing the judge.

The “boyfriend enslavement” clause of the act, of course, also got a rather high rate of use during spring and winter breaks, with it being rather common during the early years of the modern white slavery era for a mixed group to head to a party area, run out of cash, and sell one or more of the girls in the group to pay for the rest of the party. This got to be so common in some schools, that “girlfriends” were know as “spring break bank accounts”. The requirement of having had vaginal sex with the intended slave at least 3 times in the last 30 days lead to two things, massive black market sales of various ‘date rape’ drugs, and most co-eds sucking cock pretty much on demand as to avoid the possibility of being sold into slavery by her “boyfriend”. Of course, because all it took was a sworn statement from the seller and a medical exam proving that the intended slave was not a virgin in this case, there can be no doubt that many “break banks” were sold by persons that may or may not have meet the full legal requirement. After a couple of rather high visibility court cases, leading to a higher standard of proof (normally taken to mean either photographs or video of the sex acts, or notarized statement from the women in question) this practice died off.

 

Types of Enslavement and the paper work needed
Note: The following is taken from a post where Mike West is explaining thing to his new slave, Ingrid.
“There are in theory 3 kinds of enslavement, but in fact, due to the paperwork need there are 5. I’m going to go over them in order of paperwork load for a white slaver”

“There are broad classes of females that can’t be enslaved. This boils down to “no kids or mothers”. In this state, “children” means under 16, both for enslavement and mother status. To be a mother legally, they must be your natural children and either you or one of your relatives must have legal custody. Adopted, step or foster children don’t count, and if you have given up your children to be adopted, not to a family member, they don’t count. You also can’t be enslaved if you are pregnant.”

“The first is by judicial order. The court’s make sure the slave can be legally enslaved and the slaver doesn’t have to do squat other than pay for the slave and keep the papers. No taxes to account for either, because it’s already going to the government.

“The next easiest to deal with is a volunteer. The whole paper work for it is 3 pieces. The first is the standard enslavement form. We fill that one out. I’ve got a web-app that does most of the work on that one and prints off a form that only has to be signed and stamped to be legal. The 2nd is a notarized statement from the idiot in question saying she wants to be enslaved and is not legally a mother. Even though I am a notary, I can’t notarize that statement. She has to bring it to me from another notary. I have a pad of blanks that I give to the wannabes that come in, where all they have to do is print their name and have it notarized. Then the tricky bit, the result of their drug and pregnancy screen. I can use the drop of pee on a test paper test that employment agents use, but I have to keep the urine sample for 6 months. Speaking of which, don’t EVER put food in that black refrigerator” pointing at the device in question. “That’s the where the samples go. They are sorted by date. Once a week or so you need to go through it and drink any samples older than 6 months old.” Ingrid gave me this look of total horror. “That was joke. Just pour them down the toilet. Unless you want to drink cold 6 month old piss, of course. Any rate, there isn’t much to deal with there.”

“Next on the hit lists is family enslavement. In this state girls from the age of 16 to 21 can be enslaved by her parents or step parents. Only need one of them. The paper work needed is the standard enslavement papers, a copy of her birth certificate, a copy of a current ID for the new slave, a copy of a current ID of the enslaving parent, the results of the drug screen on the enslaving parent and her pregnancy test results. Here is where it gets a bit weird. If it’s the father doing the enslavement, we need his and the mothers social security number and we need to check the state database that he has legal custody at this time and that the mother hasn’t filed an abuse charge on him. If it’s the mother, all we need to do is to check that she has custody. There is a web page on the state slaving board site the does most of this for you. Oddly enough, in this state, this is the exception to the ‘no mothers’ rules. If an un married women from 16 to 21 is enslaved, her children’s custody passes on to the enslaved family. Normally her mother, but there are some other rules about that if the mother is dead or enslaved her self, none of which really impacts us at all. Still can’t enslave her if she is pregnant.”

“Next is husbands enslaving his wives. What I want is a copy of the marriage license and a copy of some sort of ID from both of them. You run their SSN through the state slaver board web form and print that off. In theory there is a stack of papers that can be filled if the web site kicks backs any thing but “approved for sale” message, but I don’t do those. Again, we need a drug screen from the seller and a pregnancy test from her”

“Now it gets ugly. Person of Personal Contact, also know as “Boyfriend enslavement. The courts have ruled that means some that has had consenting vaginal sex at least three times in the last 30 days with the possible slave and that no item of value was exchanged for the sex. We need the standard forms, a drug screen from him and a pregnancy test from her. Assuming those come back clean, we need one of three types of proof of the sex.

1. A sworn statement from her. Again, I can’t be the notary on that statement. That’s the easiest from my point of view.
2. A timestamped video of the sexual acts. You would not believe the amount of bad amateur porn I’ve had to watch in the last 3 years because of that. If it’s not on DVD already, I burn the tapes onto DVD with that machine over there. That’s going to be one of your jobs.
3. A sworn statement from at least 5 other people. It is important to note that, by law, none of the 5 people can be current or past members of the same fraternal order as the enslaver. Also important to know that if the enslavement is challenged with in 6 months and found to be based on false statements, the seller and all 5 of the people making the statement are now liable for kidnapping charges, and if the slave has been snuffed, capital murder charges. Assuming the slaver can prove that he was acting in good faith, is not liable. For what it’s worth, the slave isn’t automatically freed, regardless of the outcome of the kidnapping trial, but she is put back on sale, with right of first refusal going to the persons who brought the challenge.

 

Work Slaves
“Corporate assets slaves are the great secret bit about modern white slavery. Every one looks at the sex slave, the porn slaves, and like that, but well over 50% of the white slaves in the country aren’t working in what you would call the sex industry. About 15% of the female work force in the service industry are enslaved, and the number is rising. There are getting to be quite a few at the management level and a few at senior management level. I now have a legal obligation to feed, cloth, provide medical care for you and to provide shelter for you. For what it’s worth, until I made this change, I didn’t have those obligations. I also can’t transfer you or sell you to any body other than an other corporation that has registered as a slave owning body, who will have the same obligations, with out a lot of extra work and fees. I can still punish you as I see fit, however I have to file a report after it is complete with the state slave board, as well as with the state employment commission. I’m not sure why they want those, to be honest. The biggest difference in your status is that you can now legally act as my companies agent, in all aspects of my business. That means you are going to be signing the enslavement papers on other women, if I’m not here.”

 

Differences between the White Slave Act of 2000 world and ours.

Let’s start with the big one. The 13th Amendment to the US Constitution. In this universe it reads:
Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted or by act of congress, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

For those not up on the amendments to the US Constitution, the “or by act of congress” part in section 1 isn’t there in the real world.

History:

The White Slave Act of 2000 universe history is the same as the “real world” history up to the end of WWI. The flu pandemic that swept the world after the end of WWI, in addition to the death and suffering it brought, also caused a mutation to the human genome, which really didn’t manifest it’s self until the next generation (i.e. the parents of the baby boomers). This mutation caused the birth sex ratio to change from 1.05 males per female live birth to .85 males per female live birth. Given the other factors (mainly that more young males die than young females, for a large number of reasons) this make the over all sex ratio, in general, to be 80:100 male:female. This ratio is worse in some parts of the world (Eastern Europe and Latin America being the chief places). Oddly the mutation did not seem to have as a pronounced an effect in African population (and the US African-American population). Another effect of the mutation was a slight increase the amount of testosterone in male, leading to a slight increase in male aggression and a slight decrease of the hormone in females leading to a slight increase in female passiveness.

The 1920-1950’s went pretty much as they did in the real world. The changes started happening in the 1960.

Major points of difference:

1. Kennedy was not assassinated in 1963. He was reelected in 1964. Nixon still wins in 1968, however.
2. North Viet Nam, instead of attempting an guerrilla war to “liberate” the south, attempted a conventional invasion in 1964, much like North Korea did in 1950. This lead to a massive US/UN operation, much like in Korea, which, like Korea, resulted an “armed truce” with the armistice being declared in 1968. Needless to say, this had a huge effect on the US political scene. Basically the anti-war movement never got started.
3. The increase in the amount of testosterone in the baby boom (and post baby boom) generation had several effects. One was to increase the death rate of young males, because, well, young males tend to do dumb things, ranging from higher accident rates to an increase in violent crime. Another was to increase, by about a factor of 3, the number of gay men. (from a historical rate of about 7% to just under 21%). This lead to the “Gay pride movement” being the primary ” Gender politics” of the 1960’s and 70’s not the feminist movement. Gay marriages were made legal in most states by the mid 80’s, and nation wide by 1988.
4. Another major change was that the “Rockefeller” branch (aka the “liberal” branch) of the Republican party took power of the party. This lead to the Republican party (”The Party of Lincoln”) having a much stronger role in the civil rights movement. However, the party did this to offset the loss of white male voter (due to rapidly changing number of men and women entering voting age). The Republican party became the party of social conservatives of both sexes and males in general, regardless of race. The Democratic party, having not had the anti-war movement, and having had the civil rights movement co-opted away from it in the mid 1960’s, staying the party of the blue collar workers and some rural areas. This had the effect of the Republican party taking control of the Federal Government roughly 10 years before it did in our world.
5. When the US Supreme court had the pornography cases brought before it, instead of ruling as they did here, they did a complete legalization of porn, however the states and Congress could limit children’s access to it. Congress responded with the first of a series of “Sin Taxes”, the “Porn” tax which raised the price of X rated movie tickets by roughly %50. Congress also directed the FCC to come up with regulations for dealing with it. The result was that:
   • “Free TV” (read broadcast TV or basic cable) had quite stringent rules and content restrictions put in place. This makes showing things even as tame as beauty pageants a bit tricky. Network TV is very family friendly.
   • “Premium TV” (read subscription based or Pay Per View channels) could show any thing they felt like. These two resulted in very bland network TV and the rise in things like “The Torture Channel” or “Cable Snuff Network” in the cable and satellite markets.
6. The success of the “Porn Tax” resulted in several other “Sin Taxes” being put in place., mainly on things like tobacco, alcohol, selected types of cars and boats. When the size of the illegal slave importation problem, (mainly women from Eastern Europe and Latin America) was shown to congress, several people looked at the actual text of the 13th amendment, which combined with the current craze of creating “Sin Taxes” to control “social issues”, resulted in the White Slave Act of 2000. This act, it thought, would, because of the high costs , stop or slow the slave trade. The act also includes penalties for being an un-registered slaver, which could be a capital crime. They neglected to consider that the porn and sex industry is a multi-billion dollar industry and that people will pay a lot when sex is involved.

General notes about the story line and universe:

1. The primary plot is set in “Eastlake” Oklahoma, which is Tulsa, in a thin plastic disguise. Info about Tulsa supplied on request.
2. In the United States, there is roughly 64 heterosexual males for every 100 female in the county, in the 16-55 age cohort. This is getting worse, not better as the 2nd and 3rd generation after the mutation started to manifest it’s self begins to have children.
3. Males are, despite being out numbered, firmly in charge.
4. The Cold War ended, like it did in the real world, at the end of the 80’s, with the same effect, the collapse of the USSR and the Warsaw Pact.
5. The Jihadist movement of Islam didn’t arise like it did in our world, so no 9/11 attacks. However, once the sex ratio issue started to arise in the 1960’s and 70’s the result was that in most Islamic countries, the status of women in general is “slave”. This can be a problem for visiting free women.
6. University “courts” have been ruled to be “a lesser jurisdictions” for purposes of the White Slave Act. The federal court ruling was that if an entity has it’s own police force and can issue a legally binding citation, with at least a $100 fine attached, it can enslave. This has resulted in mass enslavement of sororities at times.
7. The major rule of “No children or mothers may be enslaved” is rather strongly enforced. The exception to the “no mothers” rule is if a parent enslaves a daughter under the age of 21, but over the local age of consent (16 in Oklahoma), who has a child, the daughters child’s custody passes on to the parents. A side effect of this is that well over half of all teen age pregnant girls, who do not marry the father, end up enslaved by her parents. This has had the expected (and desired) effect of dramatic decrees in the number of teen pregnancies. It has also had the unexpected result that most teenage girls over the age of 16 give head, more or less on demand. Some “progressive” school systems even teach fellatio as part of the sex education classes.
8. The requirement that to be a “Person of Personal Contact” you must have had consentual vaginal sex 3 times in the last 30 days with out any exchange of items of value, has lead the term “two dollar whore” not being exactly an insult any more. Women who have “casual” sex have taken to requiring their partner “pay” them, $2.00 being the normal amount. A popular trend is to have their partner sign and date a two dollar bill, which is then kept as proof.
9. The enslavement rate of women in the USA, post White Slave Act of 2000 is
   about 16% of the female population. Of those, 60% are still owned by their first owner. Most of these are what is called “SINO (Slave In Name Only)” or “TDL (Tax/Drug Law)” slaves. This class of slave grew out of several court cases that held that most tax and drug laws don’t apply to slaves.
10. Woman’s rights:
    • Abortion is by and by large legal, however several states have laws against aborting a male.
    • Sexual harassment is, in theory, illegal, however it’s not enforced all that much.
    • Equal pay laws are still on the books, but the increase in corporate assets slaves makes this hard to check.
11. Gay rights:
    • All sodomy laws declared unconstitutional in the 1980’s
    • Gay marriages allowed
12. Status of slaves in society
    • Of the 40% of slaves that aren’t TDL slaves, roughly half are in one form or another of the sex trade. The other half are “Corporate Assets”. Corporate Assets slaves are the largest growing group of slave types in America today, as more and more companies decide that paying housing and health care costs only is a better way of doing business. Several companies offer rather large bonuses (on the order of several years pay) to women to volunteer to become “Company Slaves”. These companies enslavement packages include the legally required housing payments, as well as health care, but often include a reduced salary as well. The housing, health care and salary combination, taken with the “no income taxes” aspect of enslavement has made enslavement an increasing popular choice among middle management, and in some case higher level management, up to and including corporate vice presidential level in some companies. There have been some down sides to this, however.
    • Large number of women are being brought into the country from eastern Europe and Latin America for enslavement. The normal method of this is that they are acquired in their home country (by various means), flown into a selected air port, where they are all arrested for some local law violation (in some cases, crossing a line marked on the floor). After being arrested, they are convicted, enslaved and “sold”, normally to the group responsible for their being brought to this country. There are at least a dozen airports set up around the country for the express reason of being slave ports.

Shorter stories, not set in the primary story line, will also be posted. I encourage readers of this blog to write stories set in this universe. Email me if you want to become a member of the blog staff and think you may post more than a couple of stories.
