This is really bad. I’m sure they make sure that the inmates are not dangerous and have a good history of following the rules etc before putting them here.
The reason why inmates don’t have to make minimum wage and can’t refuse to work is that the work they do in prison is supposed to be part of the justice, after being decided on with due process.
The work they should be assigned is meant to help reform them and get them ready to reintegrate back into society.
But - what due process was used to assign them the torturous work that’s a modern USA fast food restaurant? There’s literally no benefit at all to the inmate in this situation. How does it make sense to abuse criminal justice loopholes to enrichen some of the world’s largest megacorps?
