then pay them a fair wage. prison slavery is legal in america, and the wages amount to it. in addition, dont burden them with ridiculous debts when theyre released because of predatory privatized prison practices and govt.

No slap or even soft tap on the wrist. A McKinsey fund (MIO Partners) pays $18 million to SEC for abuses 2015-2020. Fund manages $14.6 billion; so it paid 0.001 % of that to SEC. Securities cheating pays (a lot).

Hey, society could use some strong male figures around while the males on your screen run around in dresses and whine about how triggered they are by capitalism. You have that luxury because of the males in the former group.
