So "lesser" criminal (drug dealers, burglars, assaulters, etc.) should be out on the streets among us???? Personally, I could easily come up with a lot more prison space with a lot less cost. Barracks, triple razor wire fence, machine gun towers, all surrounded by a minefield and a red line with a simple sign "Ye who enter here will die". Some farm implements, some seed, and a "cooler" for all the Steve McQueen wannabees. Simple, effective, and cheap. And I bet the crime rate would plummet as well.
