Our jails are becoming more and more overcrowded every year. The prisoners in them are generally are a detriment to society. Even if they are released, they quite simply commit crimes again. Not only are these criminals damaging to society, they are also a burden to the taxpayer's money. Isn't it time we did something about this? I suggest we ship these people off overseas so that they can mellow in their own mess.

Maybe we should try and fix the system instead?

or at least force them to relocate to the country when released. We have plenty of spare land outside the cities, we dont need to send our ex convicts anywhere.
