We need to be fiscally conservative enough to spend money on keeping them in jail and never give them an opportunity to pay back the cost of their crimes!
It'd be nice if prisons were made to be self-sufficient. Y'know, where prisoners actually did supervised manual labor for the state, such as running farms, digging irrigation, mending roads, etc. But then again, requiring people to be outdoors and away from cable television seems to cause outcries of "cruel and unusual" in today's world.
You used to "pay your debt to society" in prison. Now you just sit around and wait to be somebody's prison-wife.
