I like the idea of giving them the minimum wage and some of the prisoners pay going to provide restitution to the victim but i can just see firms thinking wow, i can get a member of staff for £3 a day, when i am paying £48 a day for one now, where do i sign up?Lucynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484626660177622626.post-54492732444550679292012-08-10T08:19:10.999+01:002012-08-10T08:19:10.999+01:00Someone's stopped taking his ritalin, I see......Someone's stopped taking his ritalin, I see... <br /><br />Anyway, this is a terrible policy, Lucy. It's both immoral and bad for the economy in the long term... I'm not against prisoners working but it's important that they either perform tasks which would otherwise not get done; or, if they're providing a bona fide economic service then it should cost the employer the proper market rate (even if it doesn't all go to the prisoner - maybe it could be used to help provide restitution to the victim?)... <br /><br />If it gets implemented then, like the 'beneficiary workforce' who work for Tesco, it would show the extent to which massive corporations hold sway over government policy at the moment. <br /><br />Do you know if it's likely to actually happen? Or are the government just putting it out there, to see what people say?Cheezynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484626660177622626.post-55172768521477146652012-08-10T05:46:37.190+01:002012-08-10T05:46:37.190+01:00Better watch out, Lucy, Britain...I'm sorry, G...Better watch out, Lucy, Britain...I'm sorry, GREAT BRITAIN may be invaded by hoards of unemployed Yanks anxious to make three quid!<br /><br />And the great thing is that the Yanks all think they are exceptional which will help them to adjust to the average Britain who, still living in the distant past, thinks they are far beyond exceptional!<br /><br />YuSA, YuSA, YuSA!
