If you think prison is equivalent to slavery, corporate needs to to find the difference between this picture and this picture
I know people are arguing in good faith and want prison reform. However, slavery apologists have captured this argument to minimize the suffering under chattel slavery. (no worse than going to prison) They also argue that the 13th is "white slavery" because half of all prisoners are white. If your the kind of person who understands the difference between an indentured servant and an enslaved person, then you need to understand that a prisoner, even one forced to work under the 13th, is a third thing.
