"FPI(Federal Prison Industries), the federal government's 39th largest contractor, sells more than $400 million worth of products to the US military." (October 2003) Prison laundries clean, press and repair uniforms. Prisoners manufacture helmets, shorts, underwear, flak jackets and ammunition. "The FPI, or UNICOR, was begun in 1934, under President Franklin Roosevelt, as a program to keep prisoners busy and equip them with job skills in preparation for release. It now employs 21,000 prisoners. The UNICOR workers earn hourly rates ranging from 0.23 to $1.23. Much of that money goes back into prison related industry if the prison laborers buy highly priced commissary items or make regular phone calls which cost 0.25 per minute." compete with that! damn[/quote] |

The quote was "It's always surprised me how the people that the system has harmed the most are always the first to protect that same system with their lives." Or summat. |

| kellychaos | We're already over there and involved. I doubt that most people in the U.S.A. wouldn't want to put in an effort to help support and protect our troops and bring this war to a successful end regardless of their stance on violence and humanitarianism. | ||

| McMock | Free will you mother of a stupid fuck. If people don't want to make weapons they won't make them even if they're unemployed. You can't force people to do something just because their country needs it. The USA needs smart people more than it needs anything else, weapons especially, and yet you don't see any homeless people become intellectuals now, do you? | ||

Yeah, what Kelly said. I avoided it for just those reasons. |

| DamnthatDavid | I say, we send in the bums and homeless into Iraq. If they bring back the left ear of a Insurgent (and the gun) they get a $10000 bucks. Then we send the criminals in, and let them pillage the place to the ground. My theory is, half of the bumbs, homeless and criminals will die from roadside bombs (clearing the way for our troops) and the other 49/100ths of them will die by insurgents. Leaving only 1/100th left to claim the reward. | ||

Kelly worded it horribly, but the point is valid. And I'd love to see where your "most of the unemployed" figure comes from, CP, unless of course the source I'm referring to is your anus. |

| Command Prompt | Hey wait a minute, nothing in your question makes sense, now that I reread it. Whats so dismal about having a low unemployment rate? | ||

Most of the unemployed are drunken fuckups, and thats why they are unemployed. You can't build smart weapons when you're too stupid to at least not drink every day. |

Something Doesn't Make Sense The army is in need of equipment and materials, yet the unemployment rate continues to be dismally low. I know that it's over-simplifying things a bit but does anyone else here see a connectable solution here? |
