Sherwin breaks down the real numbers behind mass incarceration in America—and what it’s costing you, the taxpayer. With hard data and sharp insight, he reveals how billions of public dollars are funneled into a prison system that often fails to rehabilitate, disproportionately targets marginalized communities, and drains resources from education, healthcare, and community development. From the average annual cost to house a single inmate to the hidden expenses of prison infrastructure, court proceedings, and recidivism, Sherwin exposes the economic burden of a system built on punishment over progress.
