They work at jobs inside/outside the prison depending on their level of security, or go to school, for time off their sentence. If they don't want an earlier release date then they can sit and watch TV for their entire sentence (someone else will gladly take the job). It is a choice, just like committing the crime/s for which they are incarcerated.Prison "work" programs for "money" (lol) is legalized slavery. Keep them poor, keep them in jail. It's the American way. Nothing funny about that. Shall we exchange "I disagree waved guy" now?
Edit - In fact in higher security prisons the inmates complain that there are not enough jobs to allow them to earn sentence credit so that goes completely against your "legalized slavery" argument.
