This is...really bad. No it can't be 'persuasively argued' and the phrase 'Marx's stigmatization of the wage system of private capitalism' sounds odd. Wage labour is OBVIOUSLY a step up from slavery, serfdom and you can find several references that can support that claim (even in Marx's writings he makes this point clear -- criticisms of capitalism aside, it is a mode that is more free and advanced than feudalism, slavery, etc.

== types ==

the section types doesn't make sense unless you're assuming a particular (all encompassing) definition of wage labour which I would caution against. Is there a reference to justify this approach? Because a Marxist definition of wage labour would preclude some of the things under type (forced, indentured labour, prison labour, etc would not apply).

So first you have to make clear what framework you're using and then types which correspond to the framework. As it stands now, some of the points under 'types' contradict some of the frameworks mentioned in the article (Marxist for sure, don't know about others)

wage labour from Marxist pov

"It can be persuasively argued," noted one concerned philosopher, "that the conception of the worker's labour as a commodity confirms Marx's stigmatization of the wage system of private capitalism as 'wage-slavery;' that is, as an instrument of the capitalist's for reducing the worker's condition to that of a slave, if not below it."
