in the cases of yibum and kiddushei biah, Hazal discouraged an action which was
sanctioned by the Torah because people today will not do it lishmah, might not
a similar argument apply to slavery? Perhaps owning slaves demands a level of care
with the various relevant halachoth or even a sensitivity that most people will
not manage. By not achieving the halachic or moral level demanded, the
slaveholder may wind up doing things that he should not or even flat-out issurim.
If so, that might be a reason to do away with it altogether. </span></font></p>
