Yep, but modified. Make 'em work. Usefrul work, that makes a
profit. Pay them. Then charge them what it costs, food, laundry,
shelter, health care, clothing, recreation, etc. That might not do it
for all of them, but it sure would for some, and wouldn't cost taxpayers
to support them.

If they decide they don't want to work, then just beans and rice
for food, with supplemental vitamins for health, water to drink, no
recreation, etc. One man to a cell, small cells.
