So all we need to do is find a way to put people in prison!

Win-win!

I was being rhetorical.

If you use prisoners for slave labor the state will make more things illegal with harsher prison sentences to increase the slave population. Involuntary servitude and slavery it prohibits, that's why they're giving drug offenders time in double digits.

Want to end the War on Drugs? End prison slavery and end the perverse incentives for making more prison slaves.
