California is desperately in need of more prison space and Texas is planning on closing prisons and figuring out how to change the laws so fewer people go to jail.
No competition between who handles criminality better between the two states. And one of them is the biggest democrat state and the other the republican. Doesn't prove anything exact this is not a republican versus democrat issue.

- chei0aiV 11y agoCinderBnB, the jail-cell sharing economy. Having trouble paying off your mortgage? House an inmate in your basement and earn over $20,000 per year! Jails overcrowding? Facing budget cuts? Save money by outsourcing inmates to individual jailers! Reviews: "We were very hesitant to accept out first inmate, but with our medical bills, it seemed like the only other option was selling the house. Danny turned out to be a sweet young man. Really loves my home-made peach cobbler. I let him have the old PC; he says he uses it to watch educational videos." - Francine Humphrey "The owner failed to lock the cell and the prisoner waked out the very first night. Edit: CinderBnB customer service was very understanding and offered a full reimbursement for search and recapture" - Sgt. Dale Flannigan "My lawyer says that according to county law I technically qualify as a tenant, so once my term is up they'll need to evict me but can't keep me locked up" - Shawn Taylor
