From the MotherJones piece linked in the article above:

"In the 1990s, subcontractor Third Generation hired 35 female South Carolina inmates to sew lingerie and leisure wear for Victoria's Secret and JCPenney. In 1997, a California prison put two men in solitary for telling journalists they were ordered to replace "Made in Honduras" labels on garments with "Made in the USA.""

Oh my.

As the article above states: "Putting people in jail and keeping them there is good for business".

Increase the prison population and you create more cheap labor.
