    Correct, prison labor is a form of involuntary servitude the 13th Amendment explicitly doesn’t apply to. Bear in mind, all this time I haven’t even argued in favor of prison labor. I’m saying calling it slavery is inappropriate, no matter how passionate you are about it.

      It can be called slavery while still being permissible under the constitution. It’s not illegal slavery, just like pre-civil war slavery in the south wasn’t illegal… But it’s still slavery.

        Slaves have owners, but call it flapjacks or pudding or whatever makes you feel like a keyboard justice warrior.

      “It’s not slavery, its involuntary servitude.”

        Name-calling - a time-honored way to win any argument. Respect!
