What good does it do to attempt to teach the very dregs or our society?

Message | Completely concur. In the League, it would also be far more economical to either take the prisoners and make them serve as forced labor (or slaves, or gladiators of some sort) or simply expand the death penalty to cover almost all crimes. Such measures would slice into the crime rate and avoid the financial problems of dumping money into the worthless hole of the penal system. |

Message | I'm surprised Mr. Volkovoi hasn't suggested conscripting them into the army... |
Date | 04:56:48, March 20, 2008 CET | From | Saiserist League | To | Debating the Act 29144-T119 |
Message | That is possible as well. But it would probably be unwise to trust our nation's security to felons. They're supposed to be being punished, not given positions of authority. |
