Released from prison? After having been inundated by prison culture, thereby becoming immensely more likely to be a re-offender? No! Released to a deprogramming facility where they can find therapy, life skills, and a path toward a life involving less violence?

The ones sent out to work in my state don’t get reduced sentences and their pay goes to the prisons. They’re used as dishwashers in corporate restaurants, they do laundry for sanitation services and cook at fast food places, like KFC

The Nazi attempt at extermination of entire ethnic groups is not really the same as a work program for reduced sentencing
