Are they going to use inmates to work in the fields, in Colorado?

I read they were going to pay 60 cents a day. Why not pay what they paid illegals? I think they would have a more willing work force. I don't mind them working . But for 60 cents a day, slave wages..

Answer:
I'm sure it is because they are housing them, feeding them caring for them and will have to pay transportation to get them there and guards to guard them. However, I agree that when migrant workers who know what they are doing get about $14 an hour picking strawberries (they are paid by the basket) a little more than 60 cents might be called for. It is hard work, and unlike those of us in the real world, the inmate has the option of staying 'home' and watching TV.
