>I don't know what to tell you if you think the crime rate there is 1/10 of the US. From what I understand it's not so much the amount of crime, but the duration of the punishment that causes the US problem. Most justice-involved people in the U.S. are not accused of serious crimes; more often, they are charged with misdemeanors or non-criminal violations. Yet even low-level offenses, like technical violations of probation and parole, can lead to incarceration and other serious consequences. https://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie2022.html |
