I dont know in the US but here in Australia it costs 1000 AUD (1001 USD) an week for every imate to house them in prison. Prisoners get more care, fred and housed then homeless poor people on the street. The Homeless are worst off and are better off commiting an crime.
Why dont we all just Have one island in the middle of no where and if you commit and terrible crime you are sent to the island, off they get and you turn around and dont care anymore. If thats not so well then at least put them on Slave labour and have them working in Prison made sweetshops making i dont know blankets for the poor and homeless.

well now, prisons in the US are slowly becoming privatized. This means the prisons are no longer owned by the USA, rather companies. This allows the prisoners to be put to work and earn their keep.

thats interesting, i guess this may have an positive effect by allowing companies an altertaive to offshore Chinese maufacturing and shipping when they can have slave labour running in prisions and sell direct to the public, undercutting what ever coming out of china.
