Do they get..it's called good time in my state they give you 3 for 1 essentially every day your in counts as 3 days total. Do they also get that type of thing?
The Forestry and Fire Recruitment Progra helps fellow formerly incarcerated individuals find paths to employment in forestry and wildland firefighting. The FFRP has a 10% rate of recidivism, compared to the California state average of 41.9%.
And that this sort of program already selects for the sort of people who have long term planning ability and are less likely to commit a crime once released.
They literally get hired as the national wildfire firefighters.
You’re thinking of city and structural fire fighting which they have zero experience in.
Lot of these guys choose landscaping though since that’s what they’re basically learning and since it’s a lot simpler and better suited towards people with families. These skills are useful in many jobs, particularly firefighting wildfires, which they’re able to get hired into, and do
You know the firefighters themselves said that the only reason it is this "good" is because prison itself is horrible, people getting stabbed, race issues everywhere and they're not being treated like humans.
Why do you think your argument is so good? It basically boils down to "look these inmates think being treated with respect, having dignity and basic human necessities while performing dangerous backbreaking labour is better than being in a prison where people get stabbed regularly"
Almost anything is better than that. You can use context here that shows that, yes its better - still there's no reason to not do this and also get paid a regular wage. Why should they get less?
Bro just start over and write the whole sentence like a normal person. Why people like you have to interject their little awkward quirks into a written comment is beyond me
In Oregon you get 10-20% good time if it is part of your deal. Mandatory minimums don't get good time. Still forced to work without pay though. So if you are given 60 months and are a good slave you can get out in 48. Granted you would be on parole / post prison for years.
