cheap either.
The money is one thing but when you look historically at the amount of
people executed that are later found to be innocent, you really rethink.
Theres a good movie about this with Kevin Spacey called called "The Life of
David Gale" which I really enjoyed.

I think a fundamental question is whether prison is for rehabilitation or
punishment. What is considered pandering by the punishment side may be seen
as a means of rehabilitation by the other side.
