We should just stop sending them potash, see how well their economy goes when they cannot make enough fertilizer.

Funny how the US doesn't tax itself for all of the for-profit prisons that don't pay any of the prisoners for their work. Sounds like corporate slavery to me.
There's also their H-2A program, which is used to entrap migrant workers into indentured slavery, much like certain reported abuses of the Canadian TFW program.
Yup, all in the name of cheap labour. I didn't say that Canada wasn't entirely innocent, I merely said that it's hypocritical for a powerful pedophile to speak of forced labour. He raped children.
I was just agreeing with what you said about labour and adding that along with the literal slavery in their prisons, there's also indentured servitude for migrant workers. Mentioning Canada's TFW Program was something I did to balance what I said, and not in response to your comment.
I should also add that the US' ICE concentration camps also have forced labour. The current Delaney Hall hunger strikes (on the inside) and protests (outside) are about drawing attention to stop it in one of the many locations where that happens.
(I hope he somehow faces justice for his crimes and that the criminals they're protecting do too.)
No, just regular slavery as supported in the Constitution
Most US states use forced labour in their prison systems.
The only forced labor allowed is to be domestic and bribed.
Otherwise it's just sparkling slavery.
And American. America First /s
"You're hurting someone else, so pay ME".
So we now use tariffs to distract from the war that we used to distract from the files because we tarriffed everyone trying to distract from the files?
Does he mean forced labour in the US? One of us is confused..
/s
over allegations the countries are allowing goods produced by forced labour into their supply chains.
