Or, relieve unemployment by providing jobs running prisons... The rich can get richer employing the middle class to police and guard the poor.

Prisons vs. Schools
A new study blasts state spending priorities
by Jennifer Gonnerman

Quote:New York State now spends more money locking up criminals than educating students at its public universities. This marks a dramatic shift in priorities. According to a report released this week, more than $761 million has been added to New York's prison budget over the last decade, while spending for higher education has been cut by $615 million. Today, New York spends $275 million more to run prisons than state and city colleges.

This is the same trend in my State and I would surmise most. These are mostly urban poor people of color that are being incarcerated at record high rates, and most as non-violent POW's in the "War" on drugs. I'm not sold on the idea that tough sentencing reduces crime. Most sane criminals believe they will not get caught, or worse that getting caught and serving time is a right of passage.
