"It is the mission of Federal Prison Industries, Inc. to employ and provide skills training to the greatest practicable number of inmates confined within the Federal Bureau of Prisons; contribute to the safety and security of our Nation's correctional facilities by keeping inmates constructively occupied; produce market-price quality goods for sale to the Federal Government; operate in a self-sustaining manner; and minimize FPI's impact on private business and labor"

2. market-price quality goods for sale to the Federal Government

This should really scare all the freepers working in the aerospace and defense companies. They are already making the office furniture and supplies. It's the next logical step.

3. That's kewl if they pay market value wages

to the inmates. I thought slavery was a dead institution. But let's lock up a bunch of harmless potheads, call 'em felons, and make 'em work. Better than outsourcing, eh?

4. How fucking visionary

Bushco, you've really outdone youselves on this one. Nazi fucking slave labor camps. How mother fucking quaint! It will be Divine Justice when these freaks are the ones that end up in prison.
