I mean, really? You want to trade your freedom and clean criminals record for minimum wage plus room and board? No sane person would do that. Prisoners should receive their wages less income taxes. Anything else creates a moral hazard, as we have seen with prisons for profit. That doesn’t mean wages could not be garnished if there is a judgement against the prisoner.
