If they escape and get thrown in a Mex jail, let the U.S. Embassy staff wait a month to pick them up. I am sure there will be less people wanting to leave the US prisons. Why could we not use prisoners to build the Border Wall? 2019-01-17T17:26:03-05:00 SSgt GG-15 RET Jim Lint 4295074 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Prisoners are paid for by the taxpayers, why not have them do unskilled labor, and teach them building skills for when they get out?

It would be deemed as slavery. Federal Prisons had an inmate industry making goods called UNICOR. Most have been closed. Businesses,and Members of Congress not happy with UNICOR.
