Either stay in your country or go through the proper channels. Or work as a field laborer for pennies on the dollar…sounds like there are a couple choices here, no one is forcing people to cross illegally.
In your rush to dunk on folks who have made a difficult decision at a low point in their likely quite difficult lives, you failed to actually read what you replied to. But I’m guessing your response is now “they are criminals so they have no rights, and so who cares about their humanity.”
First, riddle me this and I’ll decide whether to engage with you or not. Is breaking the law a choice? I’m not debating whether the laws are right or wrong.
That maybe we shouldn’t be treating anyone like that and that if we are going to have people work, yes even prisoners, should be paid a fair rate instead of pennies on the dollar.
I’m gonna pass on that and I’ve been locked up working those jobs. What are we treating them like? They have a choice…If you don’t want to, they don’t make you but believe me…you want those jobs…The fair rate is calculated after working in the cost of your housing, a victims compensation fund, your food and medical care… plus you get a reduction on your sentence and you aren’t institutionalized as bad…you never thought about that did you Toby? Now get to picking that cotton boy!
I’ve been to prison and to be honest… When you have a job in there that pays usually 60 to 70 cents an hour, it’s so much better than sitting on your ass and calling your friends/family asking for a handout…It sounds crazy, but after a while you literally crave a purpose/job.
I’m going to break it down into easier concepts. You get bored out of your god damn skull and you want to do anything to pass the time and get out of your cell.

So you didn’t read the meme still, or are we changing topics now? I’m interested to hear your defense of slavery.

Don’t worry, I’ve already made that decision for you. Good Day!

This is what total total institutionalization looks like, folks.
Since there is literally no activity one can engage in without breaking some law or another in the US? No.

They’re literally illegalizing porn and being gay

I did read it wrong 😂 my bad
It’s not OK to treat the undocumented like slaves either FWIW.
We treat our own people like slaves, what makes them so special?
You are super close to seeing the actual point.
You’re close to the point, just keep on down that path a little farther
That it’s ok to let prisoners work to pay for their own housing and food instead of the taxpayers?

This is out of touch and quite inaccurate at the same time

A purpose != a job. Capitalism has tried to equate the two, but it is incorrect

What do you think about community service?

The point is that because of the lack of illegal immigrants, they now need to use prisoners as slaves instead.
I’m not opposed, yeah I read the post wrong
What about children who were brought across the busted with their family illegally. They were forced.
They aren’t thrown in prison or forced to work either now are they?
