On the plus side, at least the prisoners are spending, and getting taxed on, their money domestically. When a company employs foreign workers, it get spent there.<br>What bugs me (and a lot of other people) more about this issue is one of privacy. These convicts are taking your personal information and possibly credit card numbers. There have been cases where a con would get out and stalk someone they'd talked to, or sell a list of CC numbers, or whatever. <p></p><i></i>

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>*boggles*</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>No company should <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>EVER</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> do this! If they're in prison, they were put there for a good reason. <br><br>"Nobody's ever suspected they're talking to a convict."<br><br>Oh, but they will, and when those customers find out, I'll bet good money a large percentage of them won't be customers any more. <p></p><i></i>
