In a u. s. town, a mining company owns all the stores and most of the houses. it sells goods to the workers at inflated prices, offers house rentals for twice what a mortgage would be, and makes sure to always pay the workers less than needed to cover food and rent. once the workers are in debt, they have no choice but to continue working for the company, since their skills will not transfer to a new position. this situation most closely resembles: a. child slaveryb. chattel slaveryc. debt slaveryd. servile marriage

C) debt slavery

Explanation:

Debt slavery which is also referred to as debt bondage is when one is forced to work in order to pay what they owe to that person or company.

It is not a well known type of slavery but it does exist , people are usually deceived

borrow huge amount of money and to work for less pay or no pay at all being told of that they are paying what they owe and they usually don't control the debt. What ever money they receive goes to the debt eventhough the work that they do is greater than what they owe but they can't decide to leave because they are threatened with violence such that they may even be beaten severely if they try to leave.

Countries in which this is common are in South Asia such as India and Pakistan in industries such as mines , mills , agriculture ,brick kilns and factories.
