Unfortunately, inmates are the only people who aren't entitled to fair wages for their work. From Wikipedia: "Penal labor is permitted under the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits slavery except as a punishment for a crime where the individual has been convicted." The fact that for-profit prisons are using barely paid inmate labor shows how greedy their owners and shareholders are.
