Well, spastics, it's always possible to change the system.
For example, to avoid executing the wrong dude, you only execute people when there is ZERO doubt, for example if they are seen by 100 people killing someone with a gun then stand there waiting to be arrested then say "I'm glad I killed the bastard." You get the idea.
As for the cost, it doesn't have to cost $24 million per execution. It costs that much because of the shitty system they have for doing it.
Like someone above said, if you give criminals the idea that they will be worse off for commiting a crime, then crime will fall. So whether you acheive that by execution or harsher punishments (I've always been keen on the idea of having terrorists tortured mercilessly, and no it doesn't make us as bad as them) doesn't matter, as long as you fuck the criminals.
