Luxury Prison in Austria

I believet that jails should give inmates the bare minimums required to live. It chaps my ass to know that felons are getting free cable TV, private cells, and free food and are allowed to lay around all day to do nothing. While the rest of us law abiding tax payers are working everyday and unfortunately our tax money goes to these prisoners that simply choose a life of crime to get these luxuries.

I suppose you would rather pay taxes to beef up security for quelling prison riots instead.

I have a better idea. Make jail useful, and keep people who don't belong in it, out of it. And stop prison crime, too.

sorry to hear about that. what's your stepson in for?
 
Sorry for my above post... but.

People need to see both ways, a bit, I think.

1. There is no 'private cell' in a prison. Individual cells are provided to separate prisoners for safety purposes, not give privacy (prisoners have no privacy, the room can be raided at any time, and searched)

2. Prisoners still have basic human rights, (in the USA, at least) so they will have some 'luxuries', especially to help cut down riots and poor conditions (and plus, due to human rights activists and lawyers)

3. Making them work would be a good idea, they do try to make them work (prisons don't clean them selves, some run farms, or manufacture things, etc) but it is hard to make a prisoner work without having problems with point #2. They tend to feel that being locked up is more than enough.
