A good reminder that the United States never outlawed slavery.
- m463 2y agoAn interesting book is "Bebt: The first 5000 years" by David Graeber It talks about the various ways debt can insinuate itself into society. In somce cases it can pull people together, in other ways it can corrupt everything it touches.
- aerostable_slug 2y agoNot really. This is a pretty clear-cut case of both ethical and legal violations. After the investigation going public, the sheriff's likely going to go to jail for it. Above-board prison labor is where the slavery question actually comes into play, simply because it's allowed/legal.
