A West Valley farm and one of the largest egg producers in the U.S. confirmed on Friday that it has lost nearly its entire chicken population in Arizona due to bird flu and will be forced to reduce staff.
“If our pullets had been vaccinated when we started lobbying the federal government in January, our pullets would have been saved right now. So we would have been able to restock much more quickly,” he said. “We need to access the vaccine that the federal government has already approved. We need to be able to start giving it to our flocks and the quicker that we can start vaccinating our nation’s poultry flock, the quicker that we can get back to normalized operations.”
Uh huh, uh huh, tell us who you voted for there pal? Also, how much do you pay your prison inmate ‘employees’?
It’s not pseudo-slavery, it’s actual 100% legal slavery according to the words of the 13th Amendment of the US constitution.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States
Arkansas, California, Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin do not use for profit prisons.
Yes but they still use what is effectively slave labor in those states as well, to make all kinds of stuff. Its only better in that they arent locked up for profit

That part was one of the biggest revelations to me. I had no idea Arizona had a for-profit jail system that is essentially pseudo-slavery.

it’s slavery. no need to soften it
I don’t think there’s a state that doesn’t.

Guess how many of those prison services are contracted out to private companies though.
Not all states use private prisons, and I don’t think all state prisons participate in forced labor (although they may all have ‘optional’ programs)
The optional ones probably vary from truly optional, to we say it’s optional but you’ll be reprimanded somehow if you don’t.
