Another possible compromise might be to only use convict labor for public-works projects, to eliminate the profit motive entirely and really focus on the whole “debt to society” angle.

Public employee unions, and construction unions, would scream. other than that, I think it's a great idea. Teach the prisoners construction skills, get them to work filling in potholes and such.
