California Prisons

WHAT?! They are letting prisoners go because they don't have the money to build new prisons and it is based on how much of a risk they are to others? No thanks.
Listen California, I know you guys are in major debt right now but I really don't think your prisons are where you want to cut back. These guys are in there for a reason and now they aren't serving their full terms and not because of good behavior but simply out of luck that you couldn't manage your spending habits?
Not cool. Not cool at all Schwarzenegger.
I get that prisons having a budget of $8 billion is excessive, especially since that puts them ahead of higher education, but for having that much money they don't seem to be doing much. Is it really not enough? The overcrowding seems out of control and something needs to be done but what? Whatever they do, I don't think this current solution of letting people go is it!
