We even export some of these products to countries that we have previously blocked imports from in protest of those other countries' poor labor practices, which to me is peak American hypocrisy. Some prisoners work on the exact same plantation soil where slaves harvested cotton, tobacco and sugar cane more than 150 years ago. And slaves are still picking cotton today.

And across the country, work is done for most of our biggest brands, whether it's manufacturing products specifically for that company or producing raw ingredients that are then sold into the supply chain. This is just a small list that the AP was able to directly observe in their investigations. And they do it because it's incredibly profitable.

Prisoners also often work in industries with severe labor shortages. And so they wind up doing some of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in America for basically no pay. Alltogether, the modern slave labor industry brought in more than $2 billion in 2021. And that's just the prison labor, not to mention work release and other programs.
