“Inmates working for state-owned businesses earned between US$0.33 and US$1.41 per hour in 2017 – about twice the amount paid to inmates who work regular prison jobs.”
I wouldn’t exactly call that being paid. It’s more of a pocket money situation.
Rehabilitation in prison is about education and giving people a perspective in life when they leave prison. Just making them suffer will not make them change their ways.
If they were paid $0.01 per hour, would you say they were being paid?
If yes, then clearly, “being paid” is not the dividing line between slavery and freedom, so you should establish how much you think someone should be paid for it to not be slavery.
By this logic, there were no slaves at any point in American history because all those people we brought over from Africa and bred into servitude were paid in food and shelter.
Lmao, this place can just hold pieces of shit like you more accountable without you being able to cry to the Reddit mods/Admins that people are mean to you.
Maybe take your ass back to your Reddit echo chamber since you’re just realizing normal people do no agree with your right wing bullshit.
Prisoners are paid for their labor in the US. How does prison “rehabilitate” any individual?

I would call it being paid because they’re being paid, hope that helps

Yes, I would say that they were being paid, on account of the payments
Hope that helps!

I really hope this is trolling.
Thanks for the help! That’s very Elon of you.
Thanks for the downvote, really great to find out this place is even worse than Reddit
