Why dont they put prisoners to work for us while they spend time in prison?
why dont prisoners DO WORK for the people of the US while they are in there....do something productive, not just license plates, other things that they can do......what are my taxes paying for here, them doing absolutely nothing inside a cage? PUT THEM TO WORK FOR US.

Work inside a prison is a privilege, and they do some work inside prisons, that nice guy you spoke to the the other day on the phone might well be a prisoner working for a company that pays the state for his services. If they didn't make the license plates someone else would, and they would cost more.
They grow some of their own foods, do some cleaning and laundry, in some states they do farm work or road cleaning.
But sitting in a cage is what they are there for, and we don't really want them in situations where they are working for us, having access to possible weapons or escape. And since you can sharpen a spoon, you have to be careful where they are and what they do.

You've been paying no attention at all to the privatized prison system we've allowed to profit among us, but wait, their profits are private & do you no good.....
