US PRISON INDUSTRY: BIG BUSINESS OR NEW FORM OF SLAVERY

~








Human rights organizations, as well as political and social ones, are condemning what they are calling a new form of inhumane exploitation in the United States, where they say a prison population of up to 2 million - mostly Black and Hispanic - are working for various industries for a pittance.

For the tycoons who have invested in the prison industry, it has been like finding a pot of gold.

They don't have to worry about strikes or paying unemployment insurance, vacations or comp time.
