Can hypnosis make a person a slave?

This seems really weird.

Hypnosis will not cause a person to do anything they are unwilling to do. If it against their nature to be a slave, hypnosis will not turn them into one.

Some people can be highly suggestable, however there is really no proof that an individual, even when hypnotized, can be persuaded or told to do something that they truly do not want to do. Hypnosis can sometimes influence people to remember things in a certain way, however it should affect one's actions that much.

I have heard that hypnosis cannot encourage a person to do something they are absolutely, completely against. Perhaps a VERY skilled and abusive individual could pull this off but usually a person cannot be hypnotized if he/she does not wish to be.
