They have no chance in hell of making this work, inmates do work already, but the only people that will make any money are the companies that are dealing with it.

What will happen if they won't do as the government want them to and that is work 9-5 for a pittance of a wage, they can't get the money stopped or get any punishment, they are already serving a sentence.

All this talk about some are to lazy to get out of bed in the morning, well as far as l know, they are woken up each morning, then go to there planned work for the day.

What could save money is the cost of getting companies to work in prisons, I used to work for a company and inmates are not allowed to work above 10 feet. So they have to call in contractors to do the work - and yet the prison must have inmates that could do this work.
