    wal-mart doesn't sell any of that they are just taking advantage of a captive workforce which is not fair competition like the republicans always claim

    I don't care for the wall-mart corporation, but that is not the same as slavery.

    Because we aren't capturing these people and forcing them to work for us for no reason. They are in there for a reason and should be working for very little money just to pay back all the money we tax payers pay every day to house them. Don't get me wrong I don't agree with a lot of the justice/prison system, but all the money we pay to keep them there...damn right I think they should work hard without earning much for themselves.
