Once again, the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) has identified massive waste and mismangement in state government. This time it is in the corrections budget.

The bottom line on the OAG report is that perhaps $38 million, nearly half the entire food budget, could be saved if the corrections department simply handed over inmate food services to a private company. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard has been demonstrating for several years that this practice works. You can read the Detroit News story here.
