[quote=Anonymous]Sharing the below to give some idea about why this would be hard to really implement. One line of my (Asian) ancestors were part of a very harsh debt peonage in California. Entire families lived for decades in conditions that were forced even after it was federally banned in 1867. It was the Wild West, but the government that did exist in CA supported and enforced it. The birth and death records were maintained by the companies and there is one scholar who has found evidence that babies of their workers/slaves were listed as assets by the Central Pacific Railroad Company.
