i am a strong opponent of imprisonment in general
it is not found on the list of punishments God approved of in the Bible, so i dont see the value in it
if you do insist on using a prison model to handle criminals, may i suggest the roman model?
there, the government only provided the prison and the chains
if a prisoner wanted anything else (food, clothing, medical care) the prisoner or his family had to provide it
it makes no sense that society as a whole should pay for this
