There was just piece on the local news as to how they’re putting parolees to work in the fields but they’re not as good as the Mexicans.

At one time Texas had a completely self sufficient prison system. Didn't cost the tax payers a dime. They made liscense plates, furniture, leather goods etc and grew almost all their food. Then there was a prisoner lawsuit and the judicial system took it from there.

Texas has a lot of prisons and now it costs the tax payer big bucks. Incidently, Texas will close one of the prisons this year to save money in this budget crunch.
