Hey bro, enjoyed the vid as always...I'm a recovering heroin addict & likewise have spent a good bit of time behind bars. However by the grace of God, I now work for the faith based program which saved my life inside the prison I spent the majority of my time in, so I can offer a perspective as both an inmate, & now an employee. There isn't much else I can say that you didn't already cover. What I will say, however, is that the number of companies benefiting from cheap prison labor is so far above what the majority of people come to think it is...its absolutely RIDICULOUS...BORDERLINE SLAVERY if you could see some of the conditions these inmates work in. Let's just say a job in a Taiwanese sweat shop would be a step up...so sad.
I agree that prison labor isn't a bad thing but the pay prisoners get, should be way higher for what they do even if it's just half of the minimum wage, that's already way more than most get. Most ideal would be that they have a 'real' job waiting for the first 3-6 months after the sentence so these people have some experience outside the prison before applying to other jobs
Dude, embrace the grey. Be glad you've got a full head of hair still! I'm around your age and I've got the salt and pepper going, I thought about dying it but it seems like way too much work.
Depends i think community service as part of a sentence can be fine as long as we accept it's part of the sentence o and it's servicing the community not a private company, Living in a non-American country like I see the 15 year old's clean up the park every January because they got catch lighting illegal fireworks and have to clean up the park for like a month rather then go to prison for fireworks and to me that seems well reasonable. Keep in mind my opinion of the American corrections system is very low, my opinion is that the US sets up most prisoners to fail they don't stand a chance after release and are very likely to return to prison, something we all shouldn't want.
I 100% agree with you Joe. my friend served 25-years. the 2nd to last prison he was at for 15 years had out sourced jobs and therefore lots of paying jobs available. he was moved to a level 1 for less than 2 years. they had no outsourced jobs, so had very few paying jobs and the ones that did were substantially less pay
I do know for a fact that a friend of mine worked at a shipyard in Bayou La Barre Al . in a work release program along with others like him . Upon release , he was hired FULL TIME. at full pay for that trade , which was shipfitter. The locally owned company was a firm believer in second chances .
Ok, so what about the vast majority of everyone else who don’t get as lucky as your friend? Whether intentional or not, your story implies an advocation for companies who are profiting off of prison labor.
@@charlessedor5901 You’re missing the point though buddy. What’s the purpose in doing that when there is a MASSIVE class war being waged on people like you and me? That really doesn’t make any sense.
@@gangstar8652 Okay I don’t care if he replies to me 😂 all I’m tryna do is get him to see my comment cause I’m sure he looks at his comments and I just want to see how Jarron is doing. I really don’t understand why people like you gotta say your wasting your time like 😂 it ain’t your life you sure got a lot of time on your hands doing nothing if your gonna say that to someone who is just tryna see how someone is doing. I really don’t care if joe answered I understand he’s got over 1mil subs he’s not gonna answer everyone except the first comments but I put it out there to just hope he might see it or I wanted to comment that and get others who are interested in Jarrons well being to also comment to maybe get attention so joe might end up reading it
UPS hell yeah a fellow Union Brother. UPS will not cross a union picket line if the company is screwing the workers and will not offer a fair contract. The UPS drivers I know are all great guys. I am a United Steelworker CNC machinist. Still wish we had a gun manufacturer I could apply for in my area. They could pay me in guns for real.
The connection between prison population and prison labor is that obviously prison labor is significantly cheaper then outside labor. The companies that benefit off of this exploitation like the manufacturers and private prisons lobby governments to keep the drug war going and lock up non-violent offenders, increasing prison population and therefore profits. That is what the prison industrial complex is. Personally, I think having prisoners choose to work is a very good way for people to do something productive on the inside, I just think that they should be paid what they are worth.
A couple of years ago I found out that a prison made my custom plates for our family vehicle. They went on lock down and it held up everybody's order. It seemed like it took forever to receive my plates.
Me too. My dad is sixty and his beard is Santa white and a bushy brown top with very little grey. My whiskers started to grey on the chin at 34. I’m 39 and all my facial hair is salt and pepper color. I’ve got like two grey hairs on my head. No not bald. Full head of brown hair. Didn’t realize how common it was until it happened to me.
What’s up comment section? Joe has motivated me to start my own channel. I have a little prison content. I would love to do clips from After Prison Show. Maybe if you guys get me some likes Joe will give me his blessing!!! Cmon APS army
Another super interesting video joe. I have never been to prison nor involved in any kind of criminal stuff. However, being a loyal follower of your channel since 5 months now, I have a much better understanding of the jail/prison system. Like you have described it so often, prison or jail seems like a form of punishment that dosent offer much if any training or education of any sort. To me its a wasted opportunity to take someone and turn him into something better. Whith pure punishment, an inmate only increase his chances of pauvrety, relapsing, depression and more. Having a job in jail or prison seems to me like a way to not only make money, but also it provide a vital opportunity to do something real and positive. I think that it should be more encouraged,promoted and structured toward rehabilitation, skils training and personal growth. Also, the prison take a huge cut, what are they doing with all this money? Joe could you make a video about how jails and prison are funded? I am a big fan of aps and i ride with you bro. Peace.
Some info:- I worked at an at&t call center for 10 years plus in Los Angeles from 2000 to 2011 - everybody who answered phone calls, I mean everyone, over 200 reps in one floor in our building made minimum $25 dollars an hour, after 4 years of service. And the pay still increased by $2.00 dollars every 6 months regardless of your performancr because of the Union contract until you reached the maximum pay which was $31/hour in 2011 when I left - So I can imagine the money deal the prison system got, by allowing prison workers to answer phone calls at less than $1.00 dollar an hour. At&t would also avoid paying for medical benefits and a bunch of other insurance benefits that came with the Union contract if hired directly.
I was a mechanic for Hickman's eggs out in Buckeye Arizona and they use prison labor for all the manufacturing and labor based work. They weren't supposed to talk to me at all but would constantly ask me to smuggle shit for them. The company would do anything to keep them happy but would throw the maintenance crew under the bus for anything.
Me and a coworker were talking about this the other day (we work in a kitchen) and we have an employee who has a record and we were discussing on why management kept him employed ( nothing to do with his record but his work performance and ethic) and we were wondering if his pay wad subsidized or our restaurant got a cheque for someone with a record great content today!!
I don't have a real problem with using prison labor per se, but as stated, the prisoner(s) need to be compensated for their time. The other thing that needs to happen for me to really be okay with this is that those companies that do make use of this labor, need to pass those cost saving measures onto us, the consumers. Of course we all know that's not going to ever happen. We all know that money is going straight into their pockets instead.
The only issue I see with prisons using labor is the states that force you to work, thats slavery doesn't matter if your locked up, you were sentenced to time not labor (Community service). However in terms of the pay for the states that have volunteer labor, you chose to work there at the agreed price, gather up your fellow workers and strike or quit the job until the pays higher, all about bargaining and unionizing in prison.
Great video Joe but one thing both articles you featured left out a couple of things. 1. The level of prison (federal or state) and the level of security. 2. If the prisoners are part of a minimum security work release or work rehab program. Texas Instruments has used prisoners in the past as work rehab program. On the flip side of the coin TI currently hires special needs students from local public schools to sort small parts and teach them valuable life skills. Keep up the good work and continue being the exception by staying out of prison.
who cares... prison labor is a benefit for inmates in a legitimate way. People saying it like its a bad thing..smh Rock the grey, joe...women like it more than ya know!😎
I have no problem with prisoners making less money for jobs in prison. But the potential for corruption leading to higher incarceration rates is concerning. Though I have seen no actual evidence of this.
Shit prison labor if your paid halfway decent could be a good thing. I worked for the WV division of highways and I believe I made $0.64 an hour. But the big payoff was getting out of the prison for 8-10hrs a day. We got to work with the regular workers and they treated us pretty good. They gave people smokes, bought us pizza and home cooked meals for lunch. As long as you did your job in a professional manner you were well taken care of. Sure the prison took almost half for rent and the other half for child support, but they couldn’t stop the regular crews from taking pretty decent care of us.
The state of this Ohio uses unpaid forced labor. Community service comes to mind. Picking up trash on the highway, cleaning and moving drywall at the courthouse are good examples
This is an interesting subject.... Tax breaks (WIOA) for hiring "underprivileged" workers is a major factor for waffle house ...when I worked there ...almost every employee got food stamps so thru the WIOA program the company got kickbacks for hiring...this among other things fueled a constant churning of new hires...this created an interesting atmosphere too
Brian has to b the 1 that called the inspector on the house a couple of months ago I no it's late I just watched that video again think about it man he screwed you then you took charges on him then bam inspector shows up he is still trying to screw you
I would bet that it will keep doing that stuff to you... just think about it all the good u have done not a lot of people think your a bad guy there can't be many people in my opinion that would do u like that idk just throwing it out there hope u continue doing what u do I love ur videos I watch them every day man
I used to work in UNICOR making comunication cables for the military. Started at $0.23 an hour and I believe I went up to about 2 an hour after like 2 years.
I worked at this huge bakery that made all the donuts for 711 in Pittsburgh everybody in there was an ex-con and or welfare mom...the joke was is if you're not an ex con or a welfare mom you can't work there. lol true story
I have to agree but disagree at work experience that you can get while doing your bid you might not get work experience in a relative free world job but you get used to waking up doing a shity job dealing with shit co workers customers bosses supervisors so at least when you come home and you get a shity job you're like you're at least I'm making more money and staying out of trouble compared to what I was making locked up
Joe like the hair dye ,looks so much better and you look younger too! Prison labor well I don’t think there is anything wrong with it either. Prisoners get to make some money and helps pass the time I would think. I don’t think it’s right to pay them that low salary. Especially if you want them to do a good job at it!
I like you salt and pepper look...I think investing in the prisoners enabling them to work is a good thing as long as they are on good behavior..even if the one prisoners are acting up...bordem..put thermo work...win...win...
Prisoners should make the same wages people make in the free world. People who are locked up have bills in the free world too. Children and families to support, mortgages, car notes, etc that stuff doesn’t just go away when you’re behind bars.
It's good in a way for the prisoners to learn a skill or two. Also they have something to do and make their time goes by fast. But at least pay them minimum wage. So they can have for commissary and save up. That have a few dollars in their pocket once they are released.
You know the person who invented the toothbrush he she was in prison an inmate Philadelphia PA in the 1700. The man who invented the Thompson submachine gun also invented that apply for a patent while he was in prison
You should know why companies wouldn't hire ex-convicts, Joe. You hired plenty of ex-cons for your cleaning and house flipping gigs, and it almost always turned into a shitshow because of their lax work ethic, drug abuse and general untrustworthyness. Even a cheap employee can be really costly.
IMHO, being without your freedom IS punishment. Anything beyond that is revenge. Bad food, austere conditions, forced labor, do not have to be part of a prison sentence. Neither does labor for free.
NO Joe don't color your hair. It is wayyyyy to dark. A common mistake all aging men make. I owned a hair salon for 10 years. You should always chooses a color 2 shades lighter than you want to be and it will be what you want and you won't look like snidely whiplash or someone that fell in a vat of black shoe polish.
Joe no longer a silver fox. Quarantine Joe was my favorite with the grey fro 🤣

Many, if not all, of the "prison" phone companies have recently lowered the cost of calls. Mine from my love went lower by $2 each call.
So how much does it cost to talk to someone on the inside?

I figured most of these comments would be about Joe's hair, instead of the actual video content. Lol
And I was RIGHT!
Prisoners should make the same wages people make in the free world. People who are locked up have bills in the free world too. Children and families to support, mortgages, car notes, etc that stuff doesn’t just go away when you’re behind bars.
I'm really looking forward to more of the ol Joe's mushroom scam. You kinda left that story super open🍄🍄🍄
The prison system in pa is around 10 cents per minute no connection fee.
It's good in a way for the prisoners to learn a skill or two. Also they have something to do and make their time goes by fast. But at least pay them minimum wage. So they can have for commissary and save up. That have a few dollars in their pocket once they are released.
Interesting stuff Joe.
Joe ur channel is cool
And have to said good luck ...
I just started watching.... And got hook like a fish cause of the content....just right !!!
Copmala Harris said we can't end mass incarceration because it's such a source of cheap labor
At coffee wood in Virginia they used to have Delco Remy. We Remanufactured starters for diesel trucks. Made $200 a month
It doesn't matter what prisoners think of prison labor.
The problem is that it pushes everyone else's wages down.
You know the person who invented the toothbrush he she was in prison an inmate Philadelphia PA in the 1700. The man who invented the Thompson submachine gun also invented that apply for a patent while he was in prison
Looking good Joe😉 love the content recently bud👍
Hahah extended warranty they call me every day.
we all kno joe dressed his fifi up in lace in prison from making panties
I love how people think they can boycott a franchise
You should know why companies wouldn't hire ex-convicts, Joe. You hired plenty of ex-cons for your cleaning and house flipping gigs, and it almost always turned into a shitshow because of their lax work ethic, drug abuse and general untrustworthyness. Even a cheap employee can be really costly.
IMHO, being without your freedom IS punishment. Anything beyond that is revenge. Bad food, austere conditions, forced labor, do not have to be part of a prison sentence. Neither does labor for free.
NO Joe don't color your hair. It is wayyyyy to dark. A common mistake all aging men make. I owned a hair salon for 10 years. You should always chooses a color 2 shades lighter than you want to be and it will be what you want and you won't look like snidely whiplash or someone that fell in a vat of black shoe polish.
