    Yep. Then they obfuscate it with legal language and technicalities like giving the guy a trinket wage. Hence the extra steps.

      The token wage isn't even an extra step, it just makes it not chattel slavery. But the level of freedom prisoners have is actually worse then most chattel slavery.
