I can tell you right now that it costs somewhere around 50,000/person in jail every year.
How many of those people are in jail for minor drug offences like marijuana? Probably a lot. While I think the penalities while driving under the influence should be strict, jail time? Unnecessary. Make people give back to the community and not drain the economy. We're paying their room and board basically. Do some research on my numbers. My sociology professor told me that and he's usually right.
