But wouldn’t it be better to teach them a trade while incarcerated and at the same time, it could generate revenue for the State. Makes sense, right? The liberals call that slave labor. Better to feed them, clothe them, provide medical and dental care for them while we warehouse them and then throw some more money at them after we’re done with all that. This insanity HAS to stop.
Yes, I think making them work (hard) in prison - to at least partially offset the cost of incarceration makes great sense. If they can also learn a trade that will help them get a job when they get out - all the better.
