votes for prisoners

[Grahamm]

The alternative of proper prisoner reform costs money and isn't a vote winner so the problem will continue.

Which is a shame, because it's been shown to be a lot more effective than the "Get tough, Prison Works!" nonsense touted by politicians who want to pander to the media and to public ignorance rather than actually do something about the problem...
