That may be true in theory, and on paper. I know for a fact that in PA, KY, FL, and DC that if you get voluntold to work while in jail, and refuse, then they will put you in solitary confinement until you "adjust your attitude."

Bear in mind that most people in jail are still considered "innocent" because they haven't been to court yet.
