Assignment Task: Who administers jails, who pays for expenses, and the length of detainment in jails create quandaries for those in charge of running the jails, as well as those tasked with allocating funds to jails? Due to the costs associated with running a jail, in conjunction with limited resources, some jails are instituting "pay-to-stay" fines for inmates who can pay as a "creative" way to offset the expenses associated with a "necessary public service." While the fines serve to appease taxpayers, critics say that the families of inmates are the ones that absorb the costs. What do you think of this idea? Is there a better way to make jails cost effective?
