Prisons should act in societies benefit not the fulfillment of your personal revenge-fantasies.
Because that is what you propose. The goal of prison is to take people put of the environments they are in, as a punishment, to stop them from doing things they shouldn't, but also to not have them do it again.
I'd argue, not having them do it again is The most important goal of prisons. And it turns out, that rehabilitation is very good at that given scientific consesus.
It is just not good at fulfilling personal revenge-fantasies like yours.
- bruce511 2y agoA countries prison system is a reflection of the attitudes and priorities of people in that country. For people who are violent at heart, prisons are violent. For people who love money, prisons are about money, for those who care about individuals and seek the improving of others, you get rehabilitation and so on. Show me your prisons and I'll tell you about your society.
