Moral hazard, getting money/profit from prison labor creates a incentive to have more laborers contributing their tithe. Or find creative ways to keep high value laborers for longer.
We never made slavery illegal in the U.S. That’s why we make various things a crime, send people to prison, and then bam, free labor for pennies on the dollar, and sometimes nothing. And the BEST PART, they aren’t subject to labor laws, so they can treat them subhuman, and create working conditions that would make you want to puke. Yay capitalism, where everyone is just a number.

Maybe i should have called it forced labor. They don’t exactly have a choice.
I understand, just found the word choice to make that point amusing
