Which is both quite funny and sad
well
the prison industrial system is connected
people like camala need that slave labor
i still cant wrap my head around the fact that usa privatized its prison system
wth
its one of the most horrible ideas ever
Well you have to consider the motivation though
Namely, profit
you cant bring profit into everything
the point of the prison system is not profit, it is to protect the public and reform the individual
Well if you're bribing and lobbying Congress though that's your motivation usually
this way, there is no incentive to do either of those 2 things
i know their motivation
i just dont undestand how something like that is legal
its on a level of a 3rd world country
trying to make profit on keeping people incarcerated... and then you realise why ex cons cannot be rehabilitated because of how they're treated in prisons
America is well on its way to being one
that should be one of the main topics of the political debate
no one even mentions it
most people dont care
until it happens to them or their friends or family
from a european perspective, this is hellish
It is
no european country has a system like that
Prison should be a healthy mix of punishment and rehabilitation. Give people a second chance. Not make a profit and keep them in prison where they foster resentment against society and continue gang participation
yes
give them a chance to earn a degree
get a job later on
learn a craft
Exactly
Not ostracise them and mark them for life
its not just the system
americans seem a lot more unforgiving
to criminals in general
i saw how the comments after someone got his whole life destroyed
that he got off light
he should be jailed for life
stuff like that
