There is not much dignity in being forced to work while you are only allowed to keep 20% of what you earn.

After rent and food the average person gets a lot less than 20%.

Yes keep going on that train of thought because we're not disagreeing at all and I'm waiting at the station where it's taking you.

Still doesn't mean taking 80% of the wages of prison laborers is anything but exploitative.
