I’m sorry to undermine an important point, but how do you make a spoiler on here? I’m using Jerboa. Yours is the first spoiler tag I’ve seen. I was under the impression you couldn’t do it on Lemmy.
You can still get wage-free labor in the United States today, but it can only come from criminals now.
The 13th amendment says:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
US is essentially just a compilation of 50 small countries that joined together to create a large military. Most laws are up to the states to enforce and create. Some states do a better job than others.
In the US the federal government has very little power to regulate individual’s actions that power is typically reserved for the states. The federal government deals with international and interstate matters.
So the federal government can make laws against selling people across state borders but they can not make laws against selling people within state borders. Because that power belongs to the states.
That’s obviously the most logical reason. For decades, no, centuries there have been legions of parents selling their children in the hotspot of Mississippi. These outlaws found the loophole and it was only stopped because of a 2009 law! Fucking braindead.
It’s called knowing the first thing about the history and present day of the worst state in the Union.
Fear mongering is what GOP politicians from Mississippi and other deep red states use to retain absolute power in spite of having done a consistently piss poor job for over half a century.
Why isn’t something like this covered under human trafficking?
The free market has to be free /s
Both the Unionists and Confederates want the same thing, that Black People should be Free
spoiler
One side wants freedom, the other wants wage-free labor, hence both “free”

Me when I’m explaining free software:
from what i read in the article comments, the human trafficking law only covers trafficking across state borders
Your country is wild….

So is Germany, but it still works……

Yeah we know that’s why we dominate a lot of the headlines
It also means that they didn’t have a need for such a law until 2009.
Or it just didn’t make the news

Or it happened but not to that degree. It doesn’t have either or lmao
Yeah, because if MISSISSIPPI doesn’t have a law specifically forbidding something, it’s always just because it doesn’t happen.
In related news, the past didn’t happen.
Jeez, the fear mongering really works on you eh?
