Answer:
The vast majority of labor was unpaid. The only enslaved person at Monticello who received something approximating a wage was George Granger, Sr., who was paid $65 a year (about half the wage of a white overseer) when he served as Monticello overseer.Life expectancy was short, on many plantations only 7-9 years.Industrial slaves worked twelve hours per day, six days per week. The only breaks they received were for a short lunch during the day, and Sunday or the occasional holiday during the week.Fearing that black literacy would prove a threat to the slave system -- which relied on slaves' dependence on masters -- whites in many colonies instituted laws forbidding slaves to learn to read or write and making it a crime for others to teach them.However, the health of plantation slaves was far worse than that of whites. Unsanitary conditions, inadequate nutrition and unrelenting hard labor made slaves highly susceptible to disease. Illnesses were generally not treated adequately, and slaves were often forced to work even when sick.Slaves were punished by whipping, shackling, beating, mutilation, branding, and/or imprisonment. Punishment was most often meted out in response to disobedience or perceived infractions, but masters or overseers sometimes abused slaves to assert dominance.

BEST DOG EVER???!!! UH YEAH I THINK SOOO!!!!!
After the First World War, and the treaty of Versailles, the economic and political situation was not good. Hitler was opposed to the new Weimar Republic. Also, as a german soldier, he found it hard to accept the defeat of the German Empire. As many nationalists, Hitler believed that Germany had lost the war due to betrayal. Socialists, communists and Jews were blamed, even though many had served in the war and many other were killed.
Hitler thought the German people were a superior race, that were destined to be the masters of Europe, and that jews, homosexuals and black people, among others, were a threat for Germany. According to Hitler, they were an inferior race, that was poisoning the german.
