I don’t see a problem with inmate labor. I would prefer it not be for private industry but it does help pay for prisons. When I was a kid we lived in a house surrounded by Southern Michigan Prison owned farmland. Back in those days, the prison fed itself and even sold some of what they grew.

Actually here in Nashville they clean all of the court houses and various metro buildings. It’s not a problem.

If more prisons had that system, you would see a lot less criminals. I remember reading that prisons used ot have convicts do sewing as well, making them work and putting htem to good use. They shouldn’t sit idle and allowed ot be converted to Islam or any other loony religions that are gaining a foothold with these people.

Georgia Correctional Industries.
The prison system in Georgia Grows their own food, produces their own milk and eggs. GCI is a heck of an operation.
