I dont see whats wrong with this at all, why should tax payers be paying for criminals? In all honesty, they should be working off their stay and costs, prisons are a large cost for cities.

Actually it's an amazingly lucrative business that profits from overpopulating itself with minoritiesOriginally Posted by Carnage
Edit:
I like how most of the other suggestions are blatant violations of human rights. Food? Beds?? Who needs beds? They're just prisoners. They had their chance, amirite?!
The top comment in DBZ's article sums it up pretty well.

We can argue as to whether or not the prisoners deserve to be there in the first place, which isnt what Im getting out. Thats a corruption in our legal system itself; I personally dont believe prisons should even be private businesswa, they should all be run by the states and federal government.
My point was, assuming the prisoners are in fact guilty, that they shouldnt be supported on our tax payer dollars for committing a crime. It doesnt make any sense. Imagine a convict rapes your daughter, and then gets sent to prison. How do you feel that you'll be paying for his bed, food, utlities, etc for the next however many years? Cant do the time, dont do the crime; if you violate the rules of society or another human's rights, why should you receive the same human rights? Now obviously there are varying levels of crime and Im not saying all prisoners deserve the same amount of rights stripped away, but I dont think monetarily paying your living expenses as well as the the state back for your crime is vulger.
