    They might just punt it to the states like they’ve been doing. Welcome back to the 90’s.

        The first one has already been floated. The second just comes later. They’re looking at doing an end run on slavery by declaring anyone a criminal, refusing due process, and sending them to work on a farm for nothing.

        Slavery never went away. It’s alive and well in the Alabama prison system. They are building more prisons there, too. That way, all the blacks pushed into poverty after no affirmative action can be exploited accordingly.

        This world is so bad.
