The only problem is they would only be able to shovel snow inside the prison. Even in places where they will let inmates work outside the wire, the number of places they can work are very limited for security reasons and because they are not allowed to compete with "labor". I see lots of prisoners working road details. Seems the south is sensible in that regards. |

Used to have prisoners working here, but unions shot that down. When I traveled in the South was when I have seen them in the last 50 years. We often see jail work details cleaning trash on limited access highways during the summer. They work out of the Plymouth Correctional Facility. Usually it's about 10 workers with a corrections officer sitting in a van supervising. I am sure they must be low risk inmates. Never saw Whitey Bulger. |

The only ones we get doing highway cleanup now are drunk drivers, etc. working off community service. |
