Does it cost more to execute someone or imprison them?

Eddi Din [679]2 years ago

Even though many may feel it an inappropriate argument to equate a human life to the expense incurred by the taxpayer to keep that person alive, we have probably all heard someone proclaim in favor of executions that they “do not know why we should have to pay to keep a killer alive!” A compelling argument to some, a total missing of the point to others. Either way, those who rely on this argument are often surprised to find out that it actually costs more (a lot more) to execute someone than to keep them in prison for the rest of their lives. And, it is a point that may have an impact on the death penalty argument from a government point of view, as well. Much to the surprise of many who, logically, would assume that shortening someone's life should be cheaper than paying for it until natural expiration, it turns out that it is actually cheaper to imprison someone for life than to execute them. In fact, it is almost 10 times cheaper!

How does alice walker utilize literacy devices to create her theme in the story “Everyday usage”
Dimas [21]

Answer:

She employs the literary device of "irony". Dee's ill-equipped understanding of her own heritage supports this claim. She tells her mother "that she does not understand her heritage." There is also irony in the lack of appetite for the food that has been prepared by her mother.  

Explanation:

This is the most prevalent device Alice Walker uses.

Fortunately, among these people, a man was judged according to his worth and not according to the worth of his father.
mart [117]

I hope u can fined answer in here. This quote from Chinua Achebe shows that someone can be come famous and a hero themselves, their worth is not inherited .

Achebe  

O internalizes the shame. U's not a manly man, and this make O overcompensate. "these people" is echoing Montaigne's sentiments because its a meritocracy, not an elitism. Speaks down on European culture.
