    you can more easy sentence people to slavery (via the 13th amendment of the US)

    Show me the person that could be in a jail workhouse right now, but isn't. We're literally busting at the seems on the Texas border. So much so they we're bussing people to DC, because we don't have the manpower to run the prisons anymore.

    This shit was true 40 years ago when the Drug War went into overdrive, but now we simply don't have the capacity to do a mass incarceration state anymore.
