i hope california never lets out charles manson. but the reality of the situation is most people we put in prison are not charles manson. the other thing that is interesting, states and the federal government in my opinion never report the full cost of what it means to incarcerate. we go to the department of corrections, $18,000 a year, in the community facility, $24,000 medium, $80,000, you can look at these numbers but what do those numbers mean? they generally mean this? bars and food and guards. that is the cost of incarceration. what about lost wages of the individual we have taken off the street? the lost tax revenue? the 25% increase in likelihood that his children are going to become tax users? what about the reality we have high rates of people we incarcerate whose family drop into poverty and we give them food stamps, provide them section 8 housing. all of those are potential costs of incarceration. and yet they are not reported anywhere. they get passed to some other government agency, department of corrections, honestly
