When are private prisons gonna start making things cheaper like libertardians claim privatization does?

I think it would simply be better if we execute those committing most 1st degree crimes against other individuals. people would be deterred rather quickly I think. Even if it isn't a deterrent, it appears it would be cheaper. Just streamline the system.

It's been known for years that the death penalty is significantly more expensive than life term sentences.

That's why I included that the system needs streamlined.

Yeah circumvent the constitution so we can "streamline" putting people to death.

Great fuckin idea.

Let me guess, you're against the idea of simply ending the war on drugs, Mr. libertardian jeebotard?

No, I'm all for ending the war on drugs, war on poverty, etc.

There are too many appeals and delays in the process once a person is sentenced to death, and that isn't in the constitution.

If you want to pay to keep people in jail, make a donation.

its cheaper to put them on welfare foodstamps then imprisonment, cause most of the costs are sucked up by appeal legal costs....

hence whatever happen to hard labour in prisons to earn a living for basic costs inside? fkn give them seeds and grow their own shit
