[quote:Anonymous Coward 744051:MV8xNTg2OTg4XzI2MjI3NzY2X0IxRUFBNUVF] Something similar happened back in the 30's with State Prison farms, they were competing directly against the farmers but had virtually no labor costs. So, the farmers got together and formed a lobbyist organization and changed the laws. Prisoners, it is my understanding, don't just work for the Military, they are making clothes as well and probably other things. I have noticed that I no longer hear about prison overcrowding and it was a huge issue for years in this state. They don't have to worry about OSHA standards either. I recycle electronics for my job and we drop them off behind the local police station in a uhaul. I asked where they went and they are hauled to the local prison. [/quote]
