Well I believed the same thing you stated about India is true for Germany. They can even get a (non-college) degree in our prisons. The truth is tho that they are forced to work for 9% of the normal wage, this is actually a law of our constitution that I was not aware of until I googled 2 hours ago. Also our private manufacturers feel a lot of pressure from the cheap labor out of prison.

Ya here also they are allowed to study and get college degrees. Some of them end up getting real good jobs after coming out of the prisons.

I do not think the working and learning of the convicts is the problem. It is rather the infrastructure around it. You could easily prevent the pressure on the free market, by in example putting an extra tax on prison produced products or make a law that companies are only allowed to produce max 10% of their goods in prison.

Hmm, I guess conditions are very different here and in West. Here we tend to increase their production more and more, and people also support products made by prisoners in order to encourage them. And the big fact is that most of the prisoners are only for some months. Out of them many are involved in the regular jail tasks only, like cooking, cleaning, serving etc. And the rest work in the factories. So not much impact on the outside labor force.
