There are needs for labor that go unfilled because there just is no labor available. I've got a couple of forest fires out here that we could drop them into.

What do you do when they run away from the fire? Chain gangs had chains to keep the prisoners in place and armed guards to watch over them. Are you going to dump all of that in to the fire zone?

LOL!!! People are complaining about strapping them to a gurney and injecting sedatives and you want to drop them into a forest fire? LOL!!!

I don't see where unfair competition is associated with this idea.
Betcha the unions object. Ask flapjack.

There are lots of jobs that are never created because the research or development efforts are too expensive.
Few people are qualified to do R&D. And the ones who are are unlikely to end up in the criminal justice system.
