Sub-Husker Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think if I was in prison I'd rather do some job--even a menial job--than just sit around doing nothing. But I wouldn't want to linger around in prison just because my presence there was good for some corporation's bottom line. Link to comment
Comish Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think if I was in prison I'd rather do some job--even a menial job--than just sit around doing nothing. Back to the future. Prisons used to always have a "farming" operation that not only provided a work outlet but actually generated produce. Just south and West of the State Pen in Lincoln, the remnants are still there................. Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Honestly, For profit prison's are not a bad idea. Until they stop throwing people in prison for smoking a joint. The prison population will continue grow. Also, here in Ok. the economy is pretty poor, so we need to lessen the burden on the taxpayer's. Link to comment
