No minimum wage, no labor laws, no hazmat regs... although I doubt if
ag department rules are optional, every waterbed made in the US is
made in a prison due to this issue. and you are penalized if you
refuse to volunteer. Even if work is optional & voluntary, when you
are asked and you don't, your life in prison suddenly gets much more
complex.

60 cents a  day! Is this possible!

Under the program, which has drawn criticism from
groups concerned about immigrants' rights and
from others seeking changes in the criminal
justice system, farmers will pay a fee to the
state, and the inmates, who volunteer for the
work, will be paid about 60 cents a day, corrections
officials said.
