No. While some activities by the inmates do generate some income from sales, in the end the income does not completely offset the cost of operating the prison.

At the prison I work at, its the other way around; the government pays the prison to hold federal inmates.

No. Federal Prisons use your Federal Tax Dollars. Huge bill for the tax payer.
State Prisons come out of your State tax, or however your State pays for them.

the object was rehabilitation, but hey...there is not enough good work for the non criminals.......not enough good work to go around.....
