We should legalize all crimes and tax them instead.

It's not my fault this thread is about comparing education and prisons. I had to put students on one side of your post.

I imagine the original method of education is pretty much outdated. In each township one of the sections was set aside for education. That would be one section out of 36 sections. I think we've probably outgrown that and schools don't know where to get money from now.

I am thinking a prison colony on the moon might be a wise investment.

Seriously, where are they going to escape to?

If they jump hard enough they might reach escape velocity and escape the moon itself. They could not return here though, they would burn up on reentry.

We don't clothe, house, medicate, or feed 3 meals to students.

We do to prisoners.

If it were a movie they would take it over and we'd have to send somebody in to retake it.

Bruce Willis would have done it for free back in the 1980s. Not sure who would handle it for free now days.

I have two kids in school.

If the government called and said that until both kids graduate my house payment is free... I wouldn't say no.

They could easily do that, and then hand you a tax bill for 10X what it costs you to do it yourself.

But if you closed a prison, some people would bitch because of the lost jobs.

Brilliant.
