Answer:
personally I would agree
Step-by-step explanation:
leased workers were supposedly prisoners that were leased to private places like large plantations, the state would largely profit but the prisoners earned no pay.
the prisoners were also in extremely inhumane conditions.
any worker that does work for no money is either a slave or a servant.
it is possible that a good friend might help with work for no pay but in conditions like this its most certainly slavery.
