    Forced Labor is literally in the constitution, PTO isn’t (nor anywhere else).

      Okay then if it’s convicted of a crime then it can legally be compelled to work for free? Otherwise, if they’re claiming it has a soul, then that means they need to compensate it for its labor and allow it to quit if it chooses.

      Note: I’m not saying it has a soul. I’m just saying if they follow their own logic, then that’s what would be required.
