Green Prisons, Reentry and the New Economy

Matt:

A very thought-provoking post, and Mark's comment above makes a good point as well. I forget who said it (might have been F. Lee, Jesse Jackson, or Bill Clinton) that the best way to reduce crime is to create (good) jobs.

Unfortunately, until we can move past the "lock 'em up and throw away the key" mindset toward prisoners and parolees will shout down whatever the merits of training prisoners for careers in green jobs may have.
