Now, what is the worst possible thing the government could do just as the nation is heading into a major economic downturn that will likely cause a significant surge in crime? Wait, I've got it, let's release a massive number of convicts back into society where they'll be unable to find jobs. Hell, they can probably find plenty of potential proteges right there on the unemployment lines.
Here's the money shot from this awful story:
Lawmakers from California to Kentucky are trying to save money with a drastic and potentially dangerous budget-cutting proposal: releasing tens of thousands of convicts from prison, including drug addicts, thieves and even violent criminals.
Officials acknowledge that the idea carries risks, but they say they have no choice because of huge budget gaps brought on by the slumping economy.
Feel safer yet?
