[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 4572185, member: 66082"] This is very old practice in America. The black codes were passed in the south after the civil war were used to carry out this function. One part of the black codes meant that black men who were loitering could be arrested and sent to prison. I can remember as a boy visiting Mississippi and my grandfather telling me that when he was a young man, black men would walking home and get disappeared by the police and sent to prison camps where they worked for businesses and that the sheriffs would get a cut of that money. Sadly, American capitalism has always relied and continues to depend on slave labor of various types. [/QUOTE]
