And yet, as I talked about getting rid of the death penalty, clearly what we're talking about is not what they currently do, but what they should do. While I don't believe in pointless cruelty or inhumane conditions, I do think hard work is more productive and more rehabilitative than the current system in either life or death sentencing.

Even IF they worked a full day it STILL doesnt mitigate the costs of thier incarceration. Working in a kitchen and folding sheets doesnt actually give any benefit to society.. *IF* anything it just takes jobs away from people who need money.
First of all, thanks for having no idea how economics work. More people producing doesn't hurt the economy. It does the opposite. And I'm actually suggesting harder labor like tending parks, cleaning up roadways, lawn mowing, trash service, etc...

Way to address any points by the way. Typical DM toss a little info in its face and it cant stand it.
What exactly is it that you imagine I have failed to address?


When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
