Imprisoning people is treating the symptom, not the cause.
If you don't treat the cause, then you'll just continue getting more symptoms.
Maybe we should figure out what it is about the USA that keeps generating so much more antisocial behavior than everywhere else and fix that.
- Gigachad 5y agoSeems like the problem in the US is there are pockets of society which have multi generational issues where the parents don’t know how to teach their kids to be successful since their lives have been a failure too. As well as an environment that normalises crime. It seems extremely difficult to break this cycle without actually removing kids from their parents/friend groups.
