What about the Victims , Bernie
They was askin’ fer it.
Because collect calls from prisons weren’t annoying enough.
Now you’ll get a facetime call.
I agree that prisoners should be compensated in line with the prevailing wage. Otherwise, this is an unfair competition to other wage earners. Further, if the going rate for work done by prisoners is a slave wage, the skills the released prisoner may have gained during his time in prison will be almost worthless. Thus he may not be able to support himself, making a return to a criminal lifestyle and to prison more likely.
If the victims were still alive and able to keep voting for Leftists...oh, wait....
Anyway, if still alive they would be getting the same sorts of “free” stuff” too.
