A. Private prisons are monitored so that the living conditions and rules are matched to those provided by government prisons.

B. Linking criminal punishment to profit creates an incentive for incarceration which can distort the justice system.

C. Crime can be prevented if the educational system and social services are improved.

D. Voluntary community service performed by members of the public can greatly influence the social standard of an area.

E. Prisons are extremely expensive to build, and even more so torun.
