A West Valley farm and one of the largest egg producers in the U.S. confirmed on Friday that it has lost nearly its entire chicken population in Arizona due to bird flu and will be forced to reduce staff.
Arkansas, California, Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin do not use for profit prisons.
Yes but they still use what is effectively slave labor in those states as well, to make all kinds of stuff. Its only better in that they arent locked up for profit
I don’t think there’s a state that doesn’t.

Guess how many of those prison services are contracted out to private companies though.
Not all states use private prisons, and I don’t think all state prisons participate in forced labor (although they may all have ‘optional’ programs)
The optional ones probably vary from truly optional, to we say it’s optional but you’ll be reprimanded somehow if you don’t.
Edit: this random post says 3/4 are forced via threat
