People should serve however many years. I also think that level 1 criminals shouldn’t get extra time for trying to put food on their tables. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1845144 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1845144 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 17:37:30 -0400 I agree with Charles, it is a good start. I also feel that it is impossible knowing the government that we’re dealing with. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1845094 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173769?scroll_to=1845094 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 17:24:59 -0400 I believed that the incarceration rates went up because I feel like the government are just throwing people in jail, just because they look suspect. I feel like the government is coming up with the most ridiculous laws to keep innocent people in jail. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1845084 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1845084 I think they want to keep the population of the country in check, so they can increase the incarceration rate. Mon, 27 Apr 2020 17:18:56 -0400 I totally agree with this because people would do right if they knew the law or the consequences of breaking that law. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1845080 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173757?scroll_to=1845080 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 17:12:23 -0400 I feel like the government can do way better by cutting down on the pricing to make new jails. What they really could do is put mentoring programs and development programs in there to make up for the billions of dollars that they are spending. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1845056 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1845056 Instead of saving and spending $80 billion to make new jails and not new school, I think they should split the money at least. $40 billion towards schools & $40 billion towards jails. Mon, 27 Apr 2020 17:07:07 -0400 I agree with Zykwann because It makes sense. The United States spends more than $80 billion annually on corrections. They don’t even spend that much on school/education. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1844994 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173737?scroll_to=1844994 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 16:39:11 -0400 Mass Incarceration https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844928 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844928 Incarceration in the United States is one of the main forms of punishment and rehabilitation for the commission of felony and other offenses. The United States has the largest prison population in the world, and the highest per-capita incarceration rate. I feel like life after being incarcerated is hard for criminals. Though 9 times out of 10 that once incarcerated criminal in good at that certain job but can’t have it because of their past. Mon, 27 Apr 2020 16:13:50 -0400 I agree with you because, I fell as though the government is bipolar. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844891 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844891 One day they want to do the right thing but the next day they do something so irregular. I’ve seen a couple of my friends get locked up trying to feed their family. What they really need to Worry about is the criminals that’s killing recklessly. Mon, 27 Apr 2020 15:57:21 -0400 I agree because I feel like they everybody deserves a second chance to a certain extent. https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844842 https://nowcomment.com/documents/173722?scroll_to=1844842 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 15:44:59 -0400
