3. I'm on the fence.

On one hand, I'd like to see things like this to be able to keep prisoners doing something constructive.
It's also why I had thought that prisons would be a great place to make the crap we get from China.

Then on the other hand, I could see this becoming exploited too easily. All it would take is some collusion between govt and business and you have a ready made slave population.

I guess, seeing as how I don't trust something like this to not become slave labor, I have to say it's a bad thing.

Too bad that you can't trust others to not make something with potential for good turn out bad.
