You don’t think there is any slave labor occurring?

Debatable point: What occurs in Prison Labour camps in many doctatorships, certainly forced Labour, but slavery implies more the degradation of a human into a commodity.

After all, it is allowed even in the US for prisoners to be forced or at least coerced into work. So there is a very fine line between prisoners as labour, forced labour, and Slavery but a line exists between each step.

I am not sure that I see forced labor as a better situation than slavery, but if it makes you feel good….
