Someone somewhere loves to say prison is a plantation for blacks.
Will present numbers to support their viewpoint.
But with any numbers, we edited down a few facts.

A slave never decided to be slaves.
They were captured and transported places.
Simply had no say.

During this modern time?
A majority of us control our destination.
The decisions we make put us in various places.

If you robbed?
A decision you made.
If you ***** or gang-*****?
A decision you made.

If you killed?
If you steal?
If you embezzled?
Or sell drugs?
Decision freely made.

Then you wanted to be apart of the prison called the plantation.

Sure, the wages just a cent better than slaves.
Just comprehend that wasn't a decision they made.

Some cries about the condition behind the walls

Well, steaks and wine you shouldn't be seeing.
Serving your time for crimes should be solely upon your mind.
If it makes you question the free decision you made to be a prisoner.

Slaves didn't have choices to not work.
Many prisoners simply refuse to believe they alone responsible for rehabilitation.
