Rutibex posted:I am honestly disgusted by the American prison system. The people in the work programs are basically slaves, and everyone is just cool with that. I worked out the math once on exactly how many black people in America are involved in unfree labor and it ended up being something like 3/4ths of the number of slaves that where in America in 1860. I could always be wrong here, but I'm almost positive that mandatory convict labor is non-existent in the US. It's true that convicts are not paid particularly well for optional labor, and maybe there are reasons to pay better, but I think comparing it to slavery is probably going several steps too far.
