They manufacture office furniture, metal BBQ's, printing and has a HUGE engraving operation for name plates etc. The state has mandated that the prison produced products shall be purchased over going outside to other manufactures for state requirements.</p> <p>I wonder if this is part of the game plan so the only places we can buy anything is from Wal-Mart or the prison system.</p> <hr /><a name="a6587_12"></a><p><b>From: Cody (BOBTNAILER)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6587.12">#12</a>]<br /> 9 Apr 2007<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> <p>I'll bet the finished products still cost the same as going to any other shop/store.</p> <p>And taxes are still going up.</p><hr /><a name="a6587_13"></a><p><b>From: RALLYGUY (RALLYGUY1)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6587.13">#13</a>]<br /> 9 Apr 2007<br /><b>To: Cody (BOBTNAILER)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6587.12">#12</a>] 10 Apr 2007</p> <div class="quotetext" id="quote"><b>quote: </b></div><div class="quote">I'll bet the finished products still cost the same as going to any other shop/store.</div><br /> <br /> <br /> Our government???? with the $250 toilet seats?
