...keep up with the massive influx of inmates. Before we think about the implications of such a policy, it is more important to know what politicians are doing to stem that flow. So far, the answer is nothing. They would rather strain the state’s resources to maintain a popular and highly politicized policy that is actually hurting our state. Double bunking is exactly the sort of short term solution that will sustain the problem of mass incarceration.
