> Prisons are terrible but honestly does anyone believe the world would be better without them. I completely agree that they're a necessary evil and that there's a need for a type of prison. I think rehabilitation is really what the focus should be since this is what will bring the biggest benefits to society. There's also an argument to be made (and made by a lot of people) that there are too many people incarcerated in the US when it's not necessarily in the country's best interest for those people to go to prison (war on drug, ...). It was interesting discussing with you and if you have any good references on "best practices" I'd be interested in reading them.
