      There are actually privately owned prisons, with investors, and profit incentives, and they’re a problem.

        And they literally do forced labor for corporations, who pay the prison for that, which is legal because slavery is still legal in prisons. It’s absolutely an industry.

          I know in the early 2000s both McDonalds and Applebee’s were known to have used prison labor to have their uniforms made.
