So where is the $75k cost to house them coming from? Clearly some contract is too expensive and something is not adding up.

For that price, we should have Harvard classes taught at prisons, and maybe these inmates could have a shot at using their disparate lifestyle extremes to have new ways to employ/create new businesses that can improve society in areas where they see/experience/witness need for improvement, and put our tax payers to good work.

If every prisoner is cooking mopping and doing whatever for free, where is the $75k/yr coming from?
