Should we be experimenting on prisoners? Why not? Sounds like a great way to get more willing people for scary experiments that would result in great advances for many people.http://www.understandinganimalresearch.org.uk/news/communications-media/why-testing-on-prisoners-is-a-bad-idea/ …

If it's done with their consent IMO it's not really in the common understanding of "experimenting on prisoners" which implies coercion. If they consent I'm fine, they have time on their hands.
I had in mind incentivizing it. E.g. say you are serving a 10 year sentence for armed robbery. I think the public would be happy to reduce this to e.g. 7 years if you were willing to participate in some risky experiments that might be highly beneficial to the population.

I share the sentiment, I'm not happy e. g. with low IQ child rapists being absolutely good for nothing, but that verges on coercing dependents, legally a slippery slope. As far as paying them isn't allowed in some jurisdictions, I think it should be, they aren't risk-averse,prlly
