[PEN-L:9361] prison labor
Christian Parenti, author of the excellent book Lockdown America:
Police and Prisons in the Age of Crisis (due in a couple of months
from Verso), told me the other week that the actual number of prison
workers in the U.S. is much less than you'd believe from the
publicity - around 100,000 out of almost 2 million prisoners. He said
prison authorities don't much like having their charges work - it
makes them harder to control.
