They have the right to health care - I said in one of my earlier posts that prisoners have and should continue to get basic rights - i.e. food, bed and I could have added basic health care. What they shouldn't have is freedom and a vote is a freedom of sorts. People should stop confusing the provision of basic human rights with freedom.
