    Of course not, what we need is longer prison sentences and more surveillance! /s

      But privatised prisons ☝️ Because the market is so efficient and they will create 5 Star Hotels for Prisoners and have Rainbows and Unicorns instead of treating them as shitty as possible and extracting as much profit they can get away with

        Ironically, one of the Scandinavian countries basically does exactly that - it’s prison, but without the risk of assault/death, and without the total lack of amenities.

        Still stuck there, ofc, but not dehumanized as a result.

        Most people dont’ want much - safety, medical care, somewhere tolerable to sit, and something to do makes a world of difference vs the US system. See comparative recidivism rates…
