And rewrite our laws. I suggest we condense all entire body of law, including the Ten Commandments (sorry Big Guy) to one word: "Don't!" If you did, you're guilty.
More seriously, crime should not be a rewarding career and prisons should be prisons, not correctional centers. They're not going to correct anything unless:
1) the individual wants to go straight and
2) there is a massive infusion of money to ensure that the economic opportunities exists for them to go straight.
Ha! for the most part on the first point and Ha Ha! on the second.
A new penal colony, like Anartica sounds good.
