Prior to that act there were tighter federal restrictions on interstate commerce made using prisoner labor. If you can't be bothered to read what I've linked I can't help you, other than to reiterate that prisons routinely lease prisoners to private companies for labor.

Pork steaks and gooey butter cake, too

That happened to me once! I got really drunk and fell asleep, woke up underneath the bed, the only logical conclusion is that I quantum tunneled!

Weak, let the men play if they want. No excuse if someone else is paying the insurance premium...

The unfortunate reality is SCOTUS has already neutered large portions of the VRA. Hopefully the ongoing destruction of our democracy mobilizes people similar to the civil rights era and we enact needed, lasting reforms
