I find this repugnant at best. A society that uses prisoners as a slave labor force is a society that always has a need for prisoners. Keeping prisoners should be fundamentally unprofitable for society, so that there is always a clear incentive to reduce recidivism rates and to decriminalize acts that don't actually hurt people.
