One of my students wrote an essay last week about the prison system in 
California, which is growing rapidly and patrolled by well-paid guards. In 
contrast, the schools in high-crime communities like Oakland are  patrolled 
by poorly paid security staff and teachers, but they do succeed in preparing 
students for their future existence as incarcerated felons.
