This argument fails if you consider that incarceration makes people more likely to commit crimes when they get out, not less

You can always keep them in jail forever, or execute them. Both are excellent options. Many human beings are complete and total net negatives, wholly incompatible with modern life, and their crimes justify their exclusion or termination. Iryna Zarutska's killer was convicted 14 separate times. He specifically should have been executed long ago, and the fact that he is still alive proves that America is not a Carceral state.
