I believe in replacing the death penalty and life in prison with life in a labor camp. Why kill off potentially valuable resources?
What
The death penalty is horribly flawed and bad policy all around, and this point has been beaten to death. I won't bother going into this.
That said, what's unreasonable about my proposal? What's the point of sticking a bunch of criminals in an enormous complex and babysitting them for the rest of their life? Why is it better to put convicted murderers and rapists in government storage when they could be contributing back to society via a labor program?
Um because that's basically the same idea as taking away someone's human rights for practicing a certain religion and subsequently forcing them to work themselves to death in a labour camp?
Where've I heard that one before...
Practicing a certain religion =/= murdering and/or raping people.
Seriously.
