Morals of Executions

No. Not by a long shot.

Point taken, but it seems to me the death penalty system is grossly inefficient;

For example, California, which has the nation's largest number of people on death row, has carried out eleven executions since 1978, at an average cost of $250 million per person.

Are they using fucking diamond encrusted needles or something? If they steamlined the system to reduce court fees, perhaps it could be viable.

Right. How much does a length of rope cost? Or a bullet?

The cost of the death penalty is clearly moral, not financial.
