Describe the various factors that contribute to the high cost of building state prisons
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should address the high cost of materials needed for prison construction, due to the requirement that everything be "heavy duty." They should also address the need for costly apparatus such as locks, fire suppression systems, video security, and so on. Mention should also be made of the need to staff facilities 24/7 and to build prisons to withstand inmates' efforts to damage or destroy the facility. Answers should point out that the lower the security level, the less the cost per bed to construct prisons.
