In my experience the ones with thicker pelts offer the best value overall
They are slower, it is true, but due to their native cultures, usually do a much more thorough job
If the slave markets continue to become more efficient, I do expect their relative prices to increase slightly (and by "relative prices" I mean their prices relative to the prices of other slaves, I don't mean the prices of their relatives), but it's all good because prices for slaves are dropping precipitously due to restricted access to education, so overall expect to pay less for more on the slave markets in the next few years, for sure

TTwarrior is the expert on cleaning floors so you might want to ask him some advice about that subject sir.

If they are slaves, why are you paying them? Sounds like you need to read the slavemaster handbook again.

Slaves are not paid. If you pay someone to do work, then they are hired help, not slaves.

not AT ALL true
slaves do not get a salary, but they DO require not insignificant maintenance costs - food, clothing, housing, medical care (at least what is required to keep them alive and capable of work), etc etc etc
If your arrangement is one where your monetary outlays on your slaves are LESS than what your purchase price and maintenance costs would be, then you do still effectively own slaves, but your ownership is implied instead of direct, and your long-term capital commitments and risks are MUCH much lower.
I much prefer the slave system we have now as opposed to the ones we have had in previous eras. I would much rather have it this way than to have to directly buy and maintain my own slaves

What do you mean? Slaves have ALWAYS been able to quit and walk away, and some did! That's exactly the point! We still own them, just in a way that is indirect and collective, which is MUCH better for us. In previous eras, if one of your slaves quit, stopped working, walked away, or any of that, it was YOUR loss - you lost an asset. If you wanted to recover your asset, you had to track your slave down, chase after him, all that bullsh*t, etc etc.
Nowadays, if one of your slaves quits, stops working, walks away, commits suicide, whatever, it is only a minor inconvenience to you, not a hit to your assets and liabilities sheet. And collectively, it is no loss, since the slave will just walk away to another master. Since the slave-owning class owns the slaves collectively and indirectly, it's never a net loss to anyone.
The new system is WAY way better than the old one, when the responsibility of slave maintenance was with the owner, not the slave itself.

slaves were able to "run" away and be most likely hunted down, beaten, raped, killed, etc. housekeepers are allowed to "walk" away and find another house to clean.

what the f u c k are you talking about? who do you think you are , and why you think that you are better than someone from pure country who came to you for a job. if you think that a person who comes to you to clean a house is a slave, than you are a slave too because you work somewhere and follow the orders of your boss, you are just a little bit more expensive slave than he or she is , and I am sure you are going to do more for a some amount of money than a guy who you think slave is. I am sure that if your boss orders you will kiss he's ass with a pleasure.
