Answer:
It would cause jails to be more packed. It would endanger corrections officers lives even more. It would have taxes raised. And could make it harder for someone whose been incarcerated for being guilty of a minor offense(such as speeding 10 over the speed limit) to keep/get a job.
Step-by-step explanation:
In total it cost 5.8 Billion in tax payer money to keep prisons/jails running. An order to accommodate the mass amount of inmates that would be added to these facilities, taxes would be risen to pay for food, and necessities. Along with taxes being risen, incarceration rates would go up, and C.Os would be in more danger while trying to do basic things, such as; check up on the inmates. A C.O could be cornered by multiple inmates while trying to do a welfare check etc. And having an incarceration on your record could prevent you from having a social life, a job, a place to live.
