because prisoners forced to be hotshots (frontline wildland firefighters, one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, with minimal training and single shifts that can last for literal days) get paid like $3/hour so of course they're not slaves

And the best thing: Because have a crime record, they can not even work in that field after release.

this is frequently true, however I know of a private agency that hires former prisoners. unfortunately a lot of these former prisoners are neo-nazis, and that seems to be tolerated
