Forget space station, build prison instead

A I read articles about going to the moon, I went into a day dream about living on the moon. It came to me. What a perfect plan for our clogged prisons and jails. Why not build a maximum-security prison on the moon, no worry of escape. Send only sex offenders and rapists – especially when it involves a child or death. Murderers will never breath freedom again. Then, maybe we survivors of these monsters will be able to sleep with both eyes closed. I think it’s the best idea I’ve had in a long time. And we taxpayers ought get out there and say, if we are going to spend our money on a space station on the moon , make it a maximum security prison for lifers.
