Your Tax Dollars at Work...

It appears that I am not the only person with this opinion on the subject. Fox News is reporting that Senate, when they return, will be taking up this very issue. Only on a Federal basis. But it is a start.

Currently there are 560 inmates on Death Row (condemned) at San Quentin Prison. I seem to recall reading that the average cost per inmate is $20,000 a year. That is $11,200,000 per year that we're spending to keep these people alive. If they have been convicted, had an opportunity for an appeal, lost the appeal, then carry out the sentence and use those monies for education or something constructive. Don't get me wrong. Everyone deserves their day in court and to a fair trial, but at some point enough is enough.
