[quote=GH]The obvious answer to this problem is to legalize drugs. Free convicted druggies and lay off 90% of the prison guards.[/quote]
That’ll never work because unemployment will increase too much. Where are all of those freed prisoners going to find jobs? We outsourced all that we could, and we import low-cost labor from south of the border for everything else. To make matters worse those freed prisoners will have to compete with the laid-off guards for jobs.
In the future everyone will be a guard or a prisoner. Many will hold both positions at one point or another in their lives.
