Yeah, I think they get away with it because it’s voluntary, and (more importantly) no one (with power) cares about prisoners. If you had to sit in jail for six days, but could get out in four by doing the extra work, it might be worth it. It also gets you out of the cells, I guess.
Indentured servitude. Nice!
Got to love how the 13th amendment made an exception for prisoners.
