I get annoyed at this point a lot. there is nothing that we can do to make china change but if we all fix our problems and set high standards for ourselves then perhaps we can start leaning on china in trade deals to clean up their acts.

This is great, and I really don't want to come off as rude, but why is this theoretically better than say planting a tree. If anyone knows I would be genuinely interested to know.

one is a romance story that starts with a MC who is nearly an adult the other is a magic school novel staring three eleven year olds. I for one would have been very concerned if they had started exploring her sexuality before the 4th book

So I do not claim to know the particulars to the current situation and the post makes it seem like this situation is not acceptable and that may be the case. there is a potential to make this idea work though, one of the big issues with our current prison system is that it is basically a training ground for new criminals. supporting a system where criminals are offered the option to work towards reduced sentences and learn valuable skills (in construction say), could work really well to help mitigate this. Not only could you make a system that provides cheap labor for the construction industry you could help reduce the number of recruits that gangs are able to acquire in the prison system.
That said there is absolutely the potential for exploitation in the system and I think we would be best served having the government maintain direct control of these prisoners rather than having the privatized prison system handle it. The first thing that comes to mind is rebuilding infrastructure.
