The District of Columbia has moved forward on a plan to reward $4.9 million over four years to released criminals who do not become repeat offenders. The D.C. City Council unanimously approved a bill Tuesday that includes a proposal to pay residents an annual stipend if they are not rearrested following release from jail or prison.

City officials would pick 200 people per year who are at the greatest risk for committing or becoming victims of violent crime and assign them to behavioral therapy and other programs. Once they meet the requirement and avoid trouble, they become eligible for a payout from the city.

The program is based off one in Richmond, Calif., where its developers say it has led to steep reductions in regional crime. Richmond's program pays participants up to $9,000 per year, but District officials did not say how much selected Washington residents could be looking at receiving.

If it's cheaper than imprisoning them, I'd have to say you're motivated by spite.

The people who make the rules are selected by voters like you.

[Sidelle]

You're right. They deserve more help than that. I will volunteer my time to fetch them hookers and drugs while I'm at it.

Hint: both those things, and many more, are off-limits to program participants.

I suggest you work on your anger; or at least direct it to the real enemy instead of bashing poors like a useless idiot.

Cheaper yet without them around ^^

Who's the real enemy?

Let's start with the prison industrial complex.

Would you like me to teach you the alphabet as well?

[maskedmelon]

On topic though, I don't really see what is wrong with government sponsored racketeering. Public sector unions already do this sans the overt threat of violence and we celebrate it.

On the other hand I suppose it could be viewed as questionable to incentivize crime like this though :/

eh not really, i mean if you do what hitler did you might be able to make it cheeper but then again some people are innocent and also the cost of killing a prisoner still exceeds the cost of incarcerating one.

But reforming one? that's cheaper than both.

Do you know the real reason Jews are so into circumcision?

my personal theory is that there was a pedophile cultist in ancient times who got REAL hard to the idea of billions of infants having their cock sadistically snipped and blood sucked from them for centuries even after his death

I like the idea of a 2 person comedy show where one guy starts to tell jokes but the other guy spouts off deep red pill conspiracy theory in response to the setup before every punchline.

BigJ this idea deserves it's own thread.

if they would estabish forced labor in prisons, america could stop sourcing labor to third-world countries. maybe incentivise it with reduced sentencing or increased rec. bye bye national debt, simple.

yes lets bring back slavery great idea buddy

[phacemeltar]

slavery > the death penalty


but thats just my opinion tho

[Pokesan]

what

[phacemeltar]

more better than

[phacemeltar]

plus then we coud have a giant slave army that we could unleash on china when they decide we arent friends anymore

[Pokesan]

does the prison population even approach the migrant worker population

how would prison jobs paying pennies a day fix the national debt

do all crimes carry the death penalty

are you drunk or just retarded

oh, china fearmongering. yes i guess you are retarded

[Big_Japan]

It may seem counterintuitive, but forced labor is not the most economically viable mode of production anyway.

It's far more profitable for a master to simply defray a small part of his slave's living expenses and then release them into the jungle, trusting starvation will ensure their return, than it is to provide cradle-to-grave care and constant security. Overt slavery increases the sense of alienation from labor product, which affects morale which affects productivity. Simply renaming slavery to something else and turning the ownership of slaves into temporary contract, with 'freedom' to re-enlist with another master anytime instead of a lifetime commitment results in a multitude of effects that ultimately benefit the bottom line.

Did you seriously think we got rid of slavery because of some great moral-ethical leap forward? Urbanized North had simply found that slavery was outmoded for its economic model and it could benefit from the propaganda effect of being "free" without net economic loss, whereas the South's agricultural economy had not quite reached that tipping point (although slavery was in decline in the South at the time).

[phacemeltar]

you dont pay slaves, idiot

[Big_Japan]

you dont pay slaves, idiot

Oh right, I forgot, they were "slaves" when we paid them in food and permanent job security and they're "employees" now that they're paid in imaginary fiat backed only by the threat of violence and have to shuck and jive to not be thrown back onto the street to starve. Major distinction.

Seriously though, if you don't pay your slave it dies of starvation or exposure. You'd make a terrible master, but that's okay, it's why you're a peasant and I'm a capital king.

i was calling the other guy an idiot, but..

it would be a better way to "repay a debt to society" by making clothes and food for orphans than by wasting away in tiny rooms. and you can even give them a portion of the food they make to feed themselves.

[Big_Japan]

yes, forced labor in prisons would do a certain amount to defray the cost of imprisonment, but ultimately a quick bullet to the head for all non-White offenders would defray even more of that cost. Homeland security already has billions of 'em stockpiled; we could be converting them into gold like alchemists.

Fun fact. Do you know who ended slavery across their entire culture? White people.

Another fun fact. Do you know who invented slavery and still practice it today? Peoples from the middle east/northeast Africa.
