Goldman Sachs invests in solar panels to ‘greenwash’ corporate-run prison labor camps in the USA
‘Imagine a factory where workers are paid as little as 23 cents per hour to assemble solar panels. Sounds like an overseas sweatshop, right?
Unfortunately, it’s happening right here in America, even if most of us aren’t aware of it.
Georgia-based Suniva Inc, a solar panel and cell manufacturer backed by Goldman Sachs, is able to exploit prisoners through a cheap labor program run by the government-owned Federal Prison Industries (FPI), also known as Unicor.
The federal program, which was created in the 1930s, is ostensibly intended to “prepare inmates for transitioning to life after their release from prison.” The majority of the 12,000 inmates working for Unicor produce goods for government use, but the program has been expanded to attract private contracts as well.’
