The taxpayer foots a bill of $600,000 - but we won't spend that much on public education
Can you please see what's wrong there, that is a sincerely screwed priority

Figure out a way for the inmates to generate income for the state. There must be something that can be profit-generating that doesn't involve sharp objects. Hell, make them grow their own food. I can see it now. Green thumb prisoners.
