You are equating economic inequality

Furthermore, "free speech" is merely the right to express one's views
without restraint in a forum of one's own. It is not the right to loot
others.
So, for the poor to organize so as to stand up to superior economic
power is to engaging in looting?
Power is force. It's not economic.

You are equating economic inequality
with slavery. I do not think that is valid, and it ... insults people's
value and ability to be self-determined.
This is the Prime Mistake of Marxism.
I dont even thing free speach is sufficient for free trade. I think
near equality of circumstances is required.
Then it's information-theoretic impossible. Since trade is *the*
mechanism for people to *improve* their lot, it casts them
into an eternal subclass.
Interchange by non-trade *is* force.
Any time people
with unequal power engage in trade the person with the greater
power has the advantage. Nearly all laborers need their jobs to
survive but most businesses don't need any particular non-owner
employee to survive.
All businesses do, very much. Now, the culture is decaying and tells
people that they can "do it all", but the very mother's milk
of interdependency is trade.
