    I’m just wondering if, during sentencing, slavery is already being part of the punishment, or of it has to be tacked on separately or explicitly. I.e are convicts being sentenced to slavery, explicitly, or do they have a choice in any of the slavery stuff? I’m asking about what is actually happening today.

      No. They are sentenced to time in prison. Most work slave jobs at the prison for a pittance so they can buy some ramen noodles.
