72. I wonder if they have to buy their own toilet paper too.
I was surprised to learn that they have to buy toothpaste as I figured basic necessities like that would be provided for them. And how is it even legal for the Bureau of Prisons to require people to work? Work should be voluntary and limited to providing prison services, etc., not working for outside companies for pennies an hour. And if they work for outside companies, how come the minimum wage law doesn't apply?
I wonder if Bernie Madoff is forced to work for 12 cents/hour.
