> I’m not sure prisons should offer gainful employment to prisoners.
> Teaching, training, therapy, yes, please, absolutely. Humane conditions and treatment from the guards most definitely.
> But minimum wage? I’m not sure. I like the idea of innates being able to complete their sentence with some funds they’ve saved up to help get back on their feet. But that’s what halfway houses are supposed to support I guess?
So, don't let people save on their own and instead force them into a new aspect of the justice system upon "release"? Didn't they serve their time in prison? Why prolong the sentence and force them to remain in the system?
