Well I'll be damned.

RemindMe! 30 days

Just for edification, what does "uncapped" in this context mean?

At least alternate side is suspended today.

But how would they steal make money if they did that?

It would be great if we could spend that on real issues without incarceration. But we don't live in a rational world, and no one would profit from treating MH issues. Ergo, lock em up to pad someone's pocket until we figure out how to make a very corrupt MH system.

Note: wrote this sitting on the A and the front of this car is empty save for one homeless person sleeping.

No, but my friend does. He says he makes more money smuggling contraband than from salary.

In all seriousness, it's hell on earth for almost everyone involved.

Source for $600k per prisoner, please? At that rate you could hire a guard for each inmate and still have >$500k/yr to steal utilize.

nb: NYPost does not count as a source.

edit: many sources confirm op's statement. It indeed costs upwards of $500k per inmate per year... Fucking. Insane.

final edit: this was an interesting read: https://comptroller.nyc.gov/newsroom/comptroller-stringer-cost-of-incarceration-per-person-in-new-york-city-skyrockets-to-all-time-high-2/

You mean you were murdered committed suicide and came back to tell us?

Oh man, I looked up and all I saw was an ad for Candy Crush.

Oh cool, another NY post article. Can't wait for this shit show.

Find any reputable news source reporting this, please.
