Hillary Clinton blames Comey, WikiLeaks and 'misogyny' for 2016 loss (1 Viewer)

This quote is awful and Clinton should be criticized for its tone-deafness and skewed perspective. But the people making it akin to the Clintons owning slaves are pretty dumb.  If you consider free labor from inmates to be akin to slavery, then we're all guilty of condoning slavery since our democratically elected government is responsible for setting up the inmate work system.  Every time an inmate cleans your litter that inmate is your slave, according to this logic.

And honestly it's fine to feel that way. But if so you should be fighting your government to end the practice of inmate "slavery," not pretending the "slaves" here were Clinton's.
I have to agree with this.  Recently, I've seen a ton of criticism of the practice of using prison inmates as labor.  None of this strikes me as even remotely compelling.  You're giving folks the chance to do semi-meaningful work as opposed to digging ditches -- that's what's rehabilitation supposed to be about.  What are we supposed to do?  Lock them in a cage all day?
