Imprisonment - for centuries it's been the mode of punishment for societies around the world. But is the prison model failing? And is it in fact fueling a cycle of crime?
Globally, prison numbers are soaring and rates of reoffending are rising. The system, according to many, needs radical change. Some European and Scandinavian prisons have been successful with a more holistic approach - the focus not on punishment but instead on rehabilitation. But could that be applied to the country with the world's biggest prison population, the United States?

They should be trying to rehabilitate during the punishment. We need all hands on deck in this country to stay competitive internationally. Prisoners should be learning trades and getting certificates for training. Employers should get tax breaks for hiring.

@samchouman8983 3 года назад

That's a really good idea

@time2132 3 месяца назад

Exactly! Why waste potential by letting people rot away in cells when they could be learning valuable skills? It's time to turn prisons into hubs of productivity where inmates earn certifications and prepare for real jobs. And incentivizing employers with tax breaks to hire these rehabilitated individuals? That's just smart economics. The current system is a drain on resources and talent. By focusing on rehabilitation and skill-building, we not only reduce recidivism but also bolster our workforce. It's a win-win, turning a burden into a boon for the economy. Time to get pragmatic and make those prison years count for something.

The latter obviously, so many people who get out of prison just come back to prison a few years later. I get that it's supposed to be a full out punishment but it just ends up making the criminals even worse than they were before.

Then maybe take a positive approach and your life around. There are resources out there you just have to want to look for them

@mrtwister9002 4 года назад

@@annetteslife That's pretty vague. It isn't that easy. This is why there are a handful of States that limit background checks to 7 years. I can't think of them all, but California, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas etc. all have 7 year limitations. There is a salary cap though, anything above 80k? (don't quote me on that number) a year and they can go back lifetime. In any case, even 70k a year is decent living with a real retirement.

Yeah, as a US citizen myself, it is true that a very high percentage of the prisoners that have left prison end up coming back to prison within three years after committing new crimes, the percentage gets even higher every year. Doctors, scientists, therapists, and psychiatrists in America believe that criminal Behavior can be treated in a different way because some of these prisoners are mentally ill and need to be treated the right way like a lot of other mental ill people and not correcting the mentally ill people with punishments, some of these prisoners are also people who probably had bad childhoods or haven't experienced what it's like being loved or doing nice things with one another, if these prisoners learn what it's like being loved or doing nice things, it can help turn their lives around in a good way. As of right now Rehabilitation is still extremely rare in the United States in fact it is so rare most Americans don't even know what Rehabilitation is, Rehabilitation has been forgotten since the 1980s when Rehabilitation was failing with criminals doing drugs or selling drugs.

We can't say it's not a deterrent because we don't keep statistics on crimes that DON'T occur or the reasons for them not occurring. There could be many people who silently end up NOT committing a crime after thinking about NOT wanting to potentially go to prison! Enough with this silly "not a deterrent" nonsense.

@time2132 3 месяца назад

So, you're hanging your hat on the invisible? Brilliant strategy. Sure, some might be deterred by the threat of prison, but many aren't thinking rationally or are in situations where they don't feel they have a choice. The "deterrent" argument is a convenient excuse to ignore the real issues: mental illness, poverty, lack of education, and systemic failures. Clinging to the idea that fear of punishment will magically solve everything is not just naive, it's dangerous. It's a lazy way to avoid addressing the root causes of crime, which would require actual effort and investment in social programs, mental health care, and rehabilitation. But hey, let's just keep believing in the fairy tale of deterrence while the cycle of crime continues unabated.

@johncrosley1 Год назад

Rehabilitation is what prison should aim at except for whole life inmates. You have to be the worst of the worst to get a whole life term and since rehabilitation is pointless their time should just be about punishment. Nothing can be bad enough for the likes of Levi Bellfield. Certainly no privileges or televisions.
