I got a buddy I grew up with in NYC, he lives in Holland now.

They shouldn’t have more than a cot and three square a day. No gym with weights to beef up and attack the guards. No tv. No internet. No video games. No conjugal visits. No nothing.

No access to other inmates for abominable activities either.
