Murderers should get beheaded without expensive painkillers. Even the falsely convicted ones are too expensive to take care of; mooching off the taxpayer for free. Anyone who finds a way to justify taxpayer stuff for murderers in jail should not call themselves libertarian. Go join the Green Party. Cutting government spending in a way where leftists and libertarians disagree means some innocent people are going to have to die. Who cares?

To me, my money > stranger's life (whether they are murderers, false convicts, or non-convicts is irrelevant). If you think that's unjustly cruel, then adopt a child from Africa or something instead of being all talk and no walk.

I don't care if poor people live or die because I believe in cutting government spending and if that means poor children starve (and by extension false convict adults who are equally innocent), then so be it; I don't care about them. Their lives don't matter to me.
