Hmm - never heard of the show Oz?

They're cheaper than treating prisoners infected with HIV and every other STD out there.

I didn't realize this until recently but healtcare is the single largest line item in many state budgets - often %15-%20 of the total. Anything that reduces disease tranmission saves money as long as it doesn't cost too much itself. Condoms are pretty cheap.
