We are finding out the folly of "throw away the key" justice,We have the largest prison population of any country in the world. The death penalty does not work that well. The new solution[tada] privatly owned and operated prisons.They make "stuff" for resale, to the state and government.So we revert back to slave labor.What happens when prisoner X can't work anymore? Send them back to state prison, so here is the dilema. the taxpayers pay for the prosecution, the tax payers pay for incarceration, the medical care and feeding,the protection for and against the prisoners. There are not any ways to humainly treat this problem.We want and demand protection from crime. So the poor and mentaly ill pay the price. While the "legal swindlers" in business and finance walk. And we preach human rights to other countrys. Go figure
