[/url]Incarceration, especially in its current form, is about forcing the victim (and others) to pay to house, cloth, and feed the person who aggressed against him.

This is sloppy language. Incarceration in its current form might involve or include that, but that is not what incarceration, per se, is. Incarceration or imprisonment is the involuntary physical control of a human.

When the plaintiff wins, the defendant is forced to pay the plaintiff. In no way does this make the defendant a prisoner or slave.

I can think of at least one way: The defendant refuses to work. No work, no product. No product, nothing to be “forced to pay the plaintiff” with. Now what? If “the defendant is forced to pay the plaintiff,” he must be first forced to produce, hence, he by definition is enslaved, and slavery is a subset of incarceration or imprisonment.
