Some 5,300 of the 2.3 million inmates nationwide work for private-sector companies.

We need to get the other 2.299 million off their lazy asses and out on the chain gang.

My dad once needed 1.3 million index cards entered into a database system. A prison contractor had the job done in 13 months. You can't find labor like that on the outside.

Indeed, who's ever heard of a non-inmate doing data entry?

Yeah, but those guys did 2.5 times as many cards per hour per inmate as your average temp worker who just wants his $15 an hour for a comfy place to sit.

Comfy? Have you spent any length of time a standard office chair recently?

Only about 14 hours a day. But at least I don't have to deal with fish in the microwave, substandard coffee or perfume bathing Jabba impersonators in the next cube any more.
