Soviet Trade
Before it is too late, tell the Russians not to shut down their prisons. They have a resource that we can use; we don’t need new or bigger prisons in our country because we could contract with the Russians to send our convicts there and thus make use of existing facilities run by experts. We have food and they have prisons, so we can barter. Once the word gets out, we might have fewer potential lawbreakers. Motto: Be a convict and get a free trip to Russia--possibly one way.
