Since we (the U.S.) incarcerate about 500% more people than most other industrialized nations then it must mean one of two things. One, Americans are far, far more evil than other people or our system is far too harsh. I can't see any other options?
So which is it? American are the worst people on earth or is our system out of line?
If you have another option I'll listen, but I can already tell you that I can't see any other possible option.
PS....If my math is right we are incarcerating about 700 to 800% more people than communist China! We aren't talking about the U.S. locking up a few more people than other countries. ONE IN EVERY FOUR PRISONERS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD IS INCARCERATED HERE IN THE U.S.!!!! THAT DOESN"T SEEM LIKE A PROBLEM?!?!?!?!?!
