I agree, it's crazy to take away ~1/7th of someone's life - during their most productive years - for theft. Are we to believe that it takes 10 years to "fix" someone of their theft problem? Did it take 10 years for them to form it? I expect in most cases the theft problem would go away at the same time as the drug problem the writer explains they had.
- coffeemaniac 6y agoThe point isn't to fix the problem, in fact they'll probably come out with more problems than they went in with. It's entirely punitive. The cruelty is the point.
- cm2187 6y agoI assume the first shorter sentences were meant to “fix” it. When they obviously didn’t the objective switches to protecting society.
