Default Re: Free Markets and Prisons

That's not very well worded. You don't "get" rights because you're imprisoned. You always have rights and always will, in prison or not. It's just some rights are limited.

It's that it is poorly worded. The fact that the State has deprived a person of his natural ability to fend for his or her own needs gives the state the responsibility to look after them, which, in this case, I am calling a "right." (yeah, that's right "safety quotes")
