Joseph E. Stiglitz Quote
Some U.S. states spend as much on their prisons as they do on their universities.62 Such expenditures are not the hallmarks of a well-performing economy and society. Money that is spent on security—protecting lives and property—doesn’t add to well-being; it simply prevents things from getting worse.
