Closed Reform Prisons - Change prisons back to punishment

Closed on

The government should change prisons back to a puishment facility. There should be no TV's, gyms, child care, good food, things that you would find in a hotel.

Prisoners should be held in cells, with food put into cells three times a day, nutrious enough for them to survive, but not for enjoyment. The cells themselves should be bare, with a bed and a toilet and possibly a window.

They should be allowed one hour of exercise a day and should be allowed to shower once a day.

This saves money for the government and should hopefully punish prisoners for the crimes they have committed.
