Default Re: Free Markets and Prisons

Is that really correct? On the street you don't have the right to eat. But when in prison you certainly have that right, they cannot starve you just because you don't have money to buy food.

Yes, I believe it is. Just like I have the right to breathe. Now this doesn't necessarily mean you can force others to feed you at your whim. In prison, the prison must either provide you with food or the means to acquire food because they have otherwise put you in a situation where you cannot acquire food on your own.
