Pardon me while I think thats nuts.
I don't want murderers turned into slaves of the state, I want revenge and justice, and to me an eye for an eye works out nicely for murder.

I wouldn't have any moral objection to executing people guilty of things like pre-meditated murder, mass murder, or even attempted murder. I was just offering a solution that would "throw a bone" to people with differing views on the issue. Some criminals would choose to live, which would make death penalty opponants happy. Some would choose to die, which would make death penalty advocates happy. Those who chose to live would do things like cleaning up trash on freeways, building security fences along our porous border, etc., which should make a lot of people happy.
