Why is there strong economic pressure to grant probation to serious felony offenders?
 
  a. Because treatment and rehabilitation programs can be coupled with probation, which result in cost-effectiveness.
  b. Because probation consistently results in an 80 to 90 success rate and is, therefore, money well spent.
  c. Because it costs less than incarceration, making it extremely attractive to policymakers.
  d. Because prison overcrowding has resulted in federal funding cuts to other alternative sentencing programs.
