Breh it's not just fukked, because when shyt's fukked at least there's fukkey.
It's sad-fukked. It's fukked but we can't even laught at it.

What I'm saying is, it's sad-fukked when the same company who gets paid for privatized prison food (Sodexo)
Is the same company used to feed our children in public schools.

Like come on, seriously? Really? School kids complain about shyt being like a prison -- and you're going to literally turn it into a prison

What's next orange school uniforms and banning shoelaces?
You are right though. Major corporations even have a hand in profiting from prison labor :snoop:

Why? Do you believe any and everyone can be reformed?

Ever heard of Sweden? Recidivism rates are 40%, America's are 75%.

Why the U.S. Needs to Start Paying Attention to Sweden's Remarkable Prison System

Also, we'll have a lot easier time rehabilitating prisoners if we give them an economically fruitful community to go back to. Which white people haven't given minorities through other racist bullshyt.
And there won't be as many prisoners in the first place if we invested in inner city schools more, which No Child Left Behind completely gutted by implementing state tests to see how much money you get. Obviously you can see problem: White suburban schools do better on tests, so they get all the money that really should've gone to inner city schools that are struggling more.

and harsh prison sentences lead to increase violent crimes

in Sweden and other first world countries, most robbery or theft sentences never reach more than 5 years.

but in the US its like 15 years+

if you gonna rob someone, might as well kill them to increase your chances of getting away with it. the added murder charge doesnt mean much when your life will be ruined from the robbery charge alone

Agreed, that's why I advocate for the Scandinavian model.

While that is all well and good I don't think the U.S. can model it's system off a country's as homogeneous as Sweden. I believe crime is simply looked at differently here both by criminals and the courts. I agree with your other points.

Most definitely, a country as massive as the United States is going to have to do things differently, but it definitely shows it can be done. And maybe we should have our justice system bend more toward rehabilitation than punishment.
