An Idea With Legs

Send Our Prisoners To Haiti

We have 2-3 Million people sitting in US prisons. Ask anyone who wants to get full release and commutation of their sentences if they want a ticket to Haiti for the purpose of clearing out all the dead bodies, ridding the city of the rubble, physical manpower of rebuilding in construction trades, assisting the medical teams and the like.
Trust me- not everyone will volunteer. But in exchange for their freedom- a labor force of 2-3 Million people, boots on the ground, is better than pants on the ground in jail.

Don't Laugh. I'm Serious. They need healthy able bodied laborers for heavy lifting.
Who wants to go and bury thousands of dead bodies?

Start asking prisoners in Florida, Texas and California where the climate is hot enough not to shock them if they went to Haiti.

We are feeding and housing them here anyway- they probably don't mind sleeping in tents-on a tropical island as opposed to the hell "hole" that they currently live in.
Put them to real seriously necessary use. Then give them freedom- parts of this country were built on indentured servants sent from England from the penal system. If it's good enough for North Carolina, it's good enough for Haiti.
