What no sound? The inference was to their ability to enjoy color tv, play games, hobbies, outside activity, three hot meals a day, snacks and naps any time while serving life sentences. Stuff like that.

The system holds their execution up.
They sit on death row year after year after year....
if their sentenced to die then kill em.

Tim McVay didn't sit there, he was done in quick.
There is profit off each prisoner, only alive though.
The system could give a rats *** if the inmate is
treated 'properly'.. it's about $$$.

There's money to be made by all these vendors supplying
the prisons with these "luxury items". It would be interesting
to follow the money trail.
