Capital Punishment: For

             Have you been wondering where all our tax dollars are going to these days?
             A large amount of it is going towards maintaining murderers, rapists and thieves,
             and for what reason, to live the good life? The average prisoner costs the
             federal government one hundred and fifty dollars a day which amounts to fifty-

             to maintain a deadly criminal sentenced for life starting at the age of thirty
             and living to seventy, it would cost tax payers an unbelievable amount of two
