  • Summary

  • California’s been calling up a special team to fight their flames made up of incarcerated people. Yup, heroes, risking it all, for wages that might not even cover your morning latte.

    Now, on paper, it sounds kinda cool—second chances, valuable skills—but is it justice? Or just cheap labor in disguise? We’re gonna dig into the fiery debate: are we reforming lives here, or exploiting them for survival?

    Stick around as we break it all down: the laws, the ethics, and how something as simple as a paycheck might say a lot about what justice really means in America.
