    Wait, just hear me out, if we wait for the concentration camps to fill up with immigrants and political prisoners, they can provide the same labor FOR FREE while also providing a nice sum for the private prison firms that, in turn, grease the prison-to-profit machine!

    All this with the added bonus that some of the labor will already be skilled. It’s brilliant!!

        Also I doubt farmers want prisoners with grudges going about their property. Best case scenario they damage something accidentally and don’t say anything which could become quite expensive depending on the thing that got broken, for example a water valve. Worst case scenario they go out of their way to break shit and basically the same problem but intentional and coordinated. Also I doubt the guards would be much better.
