The guys at Aramark would differ with you but then again, they know what they are talking about. You? Don't be silly.They should shutdown all prison industries. Put law abiding Americans to work.
Great idea
Just leave those poor misunderstood felons with nothing to do but pump iron, watch television, and plan ways to escape.
Makes a lot of sense.
My plan saves jobs.
Your plan costs jobs.
Therefore my plan makes a lot more sense than yours. But then again....outsmarting you is no great feat.
Actually, your plan is nonsense ... it saves no jobs. Linear thinking is one thing, tunnel vision is something else.
Michigan cancels Aramark contract to provide food service at state prisons
Next time, why don't you actually read your reference?
Aramak lost the contract to another company ... no jobs were eliminated. They were taken over by a different company, who have the same number of slots - most of which are invariably filled by workers already in place (former Aramak employees).
This, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with your supposition that prisoners shouldn't be required to work because they are taking jobs from other people.
Next time, why don't you actually try to understand the context? The argument was that there are no jobs at stake if a Prison doesn't buy food from the outside. Be it Aramark or whomever, jobs are certainly at stake. Are they wonderful and high paying? Likely not but a job is a job.
