hi noam chomsky,
in some sense i feel it would be silly to lay out the argument, but i feel that this is a solution to several of the problems you've drawn attention to over the years. it seems obvious to me that there should be wide, grassroots movements pushing for this...but it's in truth just not something i hear *anybody* saying. so, it would really be nice to hear somebody with a microphone saying it. it's certainly not a radical position, on a global level. so, i'm left to conclude that it's just that so few people seem to understand just how much prison labour is at the core of so many serious social issues. a little light shed on this could maybe light a long overdue, and very necessary, spark.
