the thirteenth amendment allows for slavery; police are slave catchers, prisons are slave plantations and factories. if you dont have your money taken in court, they take your freedom; the court system is notoriously lenient towards people (which ludicrously includes corporations) who can afford better representatives/more expensive strategies.

if you want labor reform, you need to start with the systematically unjust criminal "justice system."
