So you would like to see prison inmates forced to work? Or in other words, slavery. Wat.
I believe slavery originally was for people that didn't do anything wrong in the first place. While I'm against slavery, I am for it under circumstances that they put themselves in that position, like criminals. You have every right to be free etc, but if you screw up and effectively give up your right, then you should be put to work instead of sitting there in a cell. That way they are productive in society rather than taking up space in a 6x6 block of concrete.
Like I said, if your going to be dumb enough to go to jail, when you get there you should have to do something productive other than sitting in a cell. Almost like community service but under watch or something.
Considering that their freedom and rights have already been taken away by simply being in prison it does make a certain amount of sense for them to be doing something useful, if done correctly then it could be quite useful for rehabilitation.
I also agree with this.
