Easy solution: Desert. Barbed Wire. Tents. Blankets. Bologna sandwiches.
There I just the cut the cost of PRK prisons by 50% and made it possible to expand ‘em quickly and indefinitely.

You have varying degrees of criminality in a prison. Get the better men to build a new prison within a triple fenced area. That will cut the costs.

I know many of people are hard-assed about prisons, but if these guys are going to be released back into society we can’t keep making them worse.

Ah, you beat me to it.

A Liberal sees two choices:

1) Let the inmates walk free
2) Pay the inmates to walk free and attend Harvard at no charge.

A conservative says "Easy solution: Desert. Barbed Wire. Tents. Blankets. Bologna sandwiches."

Well done!

I was going to suggest the same thing for the Harvard faculty.

Yeah, I like Sheriff Joe Arpaio (Maricopa County, Arizona) pink prison underwear approach, too.

I really don't have a problem with someone who's convicted of burgalry three times spending a lot of time behind bars. But I also thought about half of prisoners are there for drug related, or other moral turpitude related offences. For such offenders, what's wrong with a tent camp in the middle of the desert? It shouldn't cost more than Harvard or MIT.
