Lockup on MSNBC: education or explotation? [View all]

I've never watched an entire episode, but it strikes me as very educational.

1. I think it eliminates the notion that going to prison, any prison, means getting a cushy ride at the honest tax payer's expense.


2. I think it confronts people with the faces of those in prison. I think most middle class people have no idea who ends up in prison.
