If a prisoner has that much money, why not slap them with some hefty fines along with the prison sentence? It makes more sense to come up with a figure based on the damage a particular criminal has done to society, than to just charge everyone an absurdly high rent, regardless of the seriousness of their crimes.

And yeah, good luck trying to get the money out of those who don't want to pay it. What will consequences be? Longer prison sentences resulting in an even greater amount of 'unpaid' rent?

Just doesn't seem like a well thought out idea.
