Madoff Goes to Jail...

...will be released in two weeks. Okay, so maybe it won't be two weeks. But we all know that Madoff is headed to a posh, minimum security prison for old, white corporate criminals, regardless of whether he broke federal law. In all fairness though, I think that all non-violent offenders should go to, at the most, medium security prisons. That way, these devious corporate criminals can hook up with non-violent drug offenders and can set up some sort of lucrative business together. Or perhaps some of the non-violent drug offenders from the hood can help the corporate criminals to be more humble and appreciate the amazing things they have (well, had). Or at least once these corporate types get out of prison and access all of their hidden assets to start a new business, they can hire some of these non-violent felons they met in the slammer and help lower the recidivism rate. It would be a service to us all. Maybe. At least it might work better than what we got going on now.
