The 2008 data is due out in six months. Prison overcrowding is expected to increase even more.

Think of the light blue bars being squeezed into the dark blue bars.

If you wanted to show the overcrowding by prison, why not do so?

Using the two bars one for design capacity and one for population leads to too much clutter.
