I mean, for-profit prisons make a LOT of their money from forced servitude which is made legal by the 13th amendment, so it's not like they're wrong either.
Again, most states don't allow involuntary servitude in their prisons. It's more like setting the minimum wage outrageously low. It's exploitative and must be ended, don't get me wrong - but it's not something that the 13th Amendment addresses.
