Correction: "Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons," clearly refers to slavery and indentured servitude, but it does not address any rights or restrictions based thereon. It only refers to how to calculate the census for purposes of representation and taxation.
