It might seem duplicitious, however many countries effecting a "holier
than thou" attitude toward US policies practice slavery and indentured
servitude.

Regardless, you are apparently confusing foreign policy with domestic
policy.  Slavery would be a domestic policy.  And it is incorrect to
state that it interferes with or is in conflict with our self-interest
or national efficiency.  Automation is more efficient.  And a well
trained and competently educated paid workforce contributes far more
efficiently to an economy than slavery does (you pay for slaves, even
if you don't "pay" them).

Those are commonly made mistakes, so I can see the error as
unintentional.
