Get real..they will be back with those type skills that we are bragging about in cost savings. It will cost more their second time around or their 3rd with " cost savings" Must have been a Florida 1 minute think tank that come up with programs that would deter prisoners washing facilities. Not impressed with the bragging rights on this. Makes good headlines though to make those looking at this think it was not already going on.

They are working for their keep. They wear what they make and sleep on the sheets, etc. that they launder. Not to mention the feeling of satisfaction of actually accomplishing something during their day! If they sit and do nothing, how are they any better off than they were before? At least the work reduces idle hands and they don't have as much time to get into trouble or sink into depression. Work is good for them! @ just saying:

I agree with Dem. Sen. Jeff Clemens that prisoners with drug problems need help. Sounds like Mr. Crews is doing a very good job, others could learn to cut back also. I agree with Dem. Sen.
