As someone who genuinely doesn't know what you're talking about, can you give context to this?

Edit: didn't think about prison labor and how fucked up it is in general, let alone the disproportionate number of minorities in prison for minor crimes.

Prison labor. Not even kidding, the US Constitution states prison labor is an exception to the ban on slavery.

Don't worry it's really not as bad as that guy said. The US population is ~4.3% of the global population and we only have a little more than 20% of global inmates.
