1) Oh, would you look at the time, It’s “I can’t discuss that”-o'clock!

2) I imagine so.

Yes, definitely. Even if you don’t count artisans that use magic for their craft, electricity in Equestria is magically powered. That magic comes from unicorns.

To go a little further on that subject, unicorn criminals can be brought in to help power the system if they’re offense isn’t too terrible. Takes time off their sentence. Earth and pegasus convicts can be brought in for similar government projects, but I don’t know the details offhoof.

Only reason I know about the unicorn thing is because I’ve done it before. It’s not so bad. The regular workers that get paid are all fairly powerful at magic and are all pretty smart. There’s a lot of down time resting where you can just sit around and talk to them. If you’re ever imprisoned and have the chance, I recommend taking it!

3) Of what?

4) Of this? Oh! I think it’s that time again!

And when I say I can’t talk about it, I mean it. Doing so would be considered an act of treason.

Yes, they do separate criminals. And it's scary. All these mares, they want to do terrible things to me!

Have you tried telling the guards that you’re a colt and you don’t belong caged with fillies? If they don’t care, then I’m sorry to say this, but to borrow from a crude, modern dubbing of an old television special, “Charlie Brown, you are well [omitted] and far from home.”

Ha ha~! That was a joke for our human audience. I’m just playing, obviously. Equestrian correctional facilities aren’t so bad. I would know; I’ve been arrested more than once.

I’ve heard horror stories about the ones on Human Earth, though.
