    I saw a documentary on this some years ago. A lot of the inmates actually seem to like him, though of course a lot didn't. For most inmates this looks like a good idea IMO, and would help to reduce costs, and as long as the rehabilitation isn't ignored (and it doesn't look to be), then it probably a good thing.
    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
    -- John Stewart Mills

    But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

    I just noticed this was about the prison in Maricopa county, AZ.... I've posted things about this before and am a fan. I think he's definitely got the right idea for prisons with tough conditions, hard labor, and educational/rehab opportunities, having an accredited HS on the prison for the inmates. He also does this while keeping costs very low- feeding the inmates on 20 cents a day!

    I think all prison should be like that, brilliant way of doing things.
    10:1 overrun them, 5:1 outflank them, 1:1 outfight them, 1:5 outrun them

    That's great but I seriously hope he doesn't get sued if they suffer from malnutrition. I don't think they will but what can you get for that sort of price?
