Non-violent prisoners, and those without links to terrorism should be freed from US jails if they can find a country that will accept them. This will save the US government billions of dollars a year and will relief the strain on the US correctional system. This action must happen with the express consent that the individual will be put on the national no-fly list and can never re-enter the US or any of its territories for any reason.

With minorities and the poor so over-represented in the correctional system, such policy would correct a grave social injustice and represent a new beginning in social relations and a new vision of effective government policy.
