What safety does society get with him in prison that it wouldn't get with him outside prison and restricted from any "financial" type job?

I don't really see the harm in him working at McDonalds, for example, except maybe he'd embezzle from the till, so put him on fries.

If he's free, he could very well pretend he's someone else and skirt the restrictions, or convince someone else to act as his pawn.
