reminder that slavery is legal as a punishment in the usa
Completely true, and completely vile. The truly sad thing is that a politician can’t win on a platform of abolishing slavery in states filled with the descendents of slaves.
and they probably have a line of prisoners waiting for the opportunity because anything beats being in a cell
Its worse than that.
While those working at private companies can at least earn a little money, they face possible punishment if they refuse, from being denied family visits to being sent to higher-security prisons, which are so dangerous that the federal government filed a lawsuit four years ago that remains pending, calling the treatment of prisoners unconstitutional.
You got that right. I’d take anything over a concrete and steel cage, being overseen, and living with, the worst of humanity. Only been in county a couple of days, but that was sheer hell.
OTOH, sounds like the coercion is strong.
[Sarcasm] I’m sure that’s the real reason.
You really think that’s the real reason? Bc I doubt it is
No, that’s why I put sarcasm at the beginning.
