Why should we look at money in any debate then? If something is moral, we should disregard the cost. Free puppies and lollipops for everyone.

You are not being reasonable. Simply because we have won the dabate about the cost on capital punishment does not mean you can just side step the issue. This is a real issue. Money is a real factor. We should not waste it.

Oh by the way, here is a study that says 2/3 of death sentences are overturned.

That shows that the death penalty is even more unefficient.

How much are we going to waste in a system that does not work, does not give the punishment, does nt stop crime, and kills innocent people?
When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
