I saw FL talking about this 2-3 weeks (days? lol) ago. No one has any $$...

Prisons chief warns about cuts -- "TALLAHASSEE — The leader of the state's prison system is warning of dire scenarios: large budget cuts, including more cramped and dangerous prisons, and a rise in crime around the state."

My afterthought... one more war we can end is this "war on drugs" -- seems that could take care of the prison problem for everyone.
