    Besides, this way the jail can rent them out to McDonald’s. (I wish I was joking on that)

    What’s the story behind that?

      Here’s the one I saw the other day, but if you Google “inmate McDonald’s slavery” a bunch come up from other sources. Basically they pay minimum wage, the prison takes a cut, the prison also charges the inmates a fee, and the prison also withholds privileges if they refuse.
