It's in the tax payers interest that prisoners make as much money as possible, while not threatening the rest of society. My point of bringing up minimum wage is that it is a reference point for the value of human labor that prisoners are competiting against others with.

It's a nice idea. Unfortunately literally nothing about the modern prison system works in the taxpayers interest.
