Prisoners should be able to choose their jobs, which would help them engage in productive activities that facilitate successful reintegration into society after serving their time.
The practice of forcing incarcerated individuals to work against their will is immoral and ultimately does not benefit prisoners or the communities they return to.

A focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment is essential, emphasizing educational and treatment programs that are crucial for prisoners' futures after incarceration.
