Average cost of prisoners, 19 K in 2015
20 years, no wonder the US has the highest incarceration rates in the world
Not sure what you are saying. Are you saying we should let habitual felony offenders run around loose all the time? I mean, really, why arrest anyone for anything if we're just going to put a revolving door on the jail? Maybe we can give them keys like Otis Cambell on the Andy Griffith Show and let them come and go as they please. What costs a lot is having large size police forces to rearrest the very same people over and over plus we also have to pay for attorneys and judges, courthouses, etc for reprocessing the same people over and over again. We should just quit arresting people and let all criminals run around loose. There's no point in arresting all of these people if we're just going to let them right back out, especially when they have been arrested numerous times and letting them right back out numerous times.
