    Amendment T sounded good at first glance, but seems to me like it would get rid of community service and other valuable programs to the public and the criminally charged.

    And potentially open the door to litigation on the behalf of incarcerated individuals who were forced to perform "slave labor" while incarcerated. We all know there are lawyers out there chomping at the proverbial bit to get their fingers into city, county and state wallets.
    Just my take on it.
    Comply in public, Conduct in private.

    Sure the Lawyers will always get their cut, even before this attempt. As someone who has gotten community service instead of jail time and fines, this does not help anyone except the lawyers.

    Pretty much. There would be a ton of people trying to get into that class action lawsuit.
    I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.
