It cost anywhere from $150,000 to $190,000 to house and keep a juvenile incarcerated for one year. Do you think this is good use of tax dollar money? Explain your response.

No, if it is a juvenile depending one what they did they should not be incarcerated and should just do community service or probation. Tax should be spent on things that help the community not break it.
