its because city-dwellers have exported their prison-like system to everywhere on earth because ... they think it's best. Even the outer space is regulated. I don't know about underground though, how deep can you go? Most of the rules don't even make sense outside big cities, but we obey them because we are generally forced to. It costs a lot too. I think it's absurd, but it will take a few decades to realize this.
