Have you or your loved ones ever been the victim of a violent crime? Chances are very high that the perpetrators were school and trained in our failing corrections system.
Here in American prisons the recidivism rate is as high as 77%. If you look at the corrections system in Europe, their recidivism rate is at 15%. That means that they actually rehabilitate their offenders and assist them with integrating into society to lead more productive lives. If Europe can do it, why can't we? What our prisons do excel at is producing graduates who are more intensely violent and better skilled at committing more crimes. Rehabilitation is practically non-existent. Why do we continue to allow such a broken concept to continue?

Prisons Getting More and More Expensive
Not only are we harboring malfunctioning machinery that is causing great damage to society, but the costs of this malfunctioning institution has been sharply escalating for the last twenty years. On the municipal level, expenditures on the criminal justice system have gone up 422% since 1982. On the state level, we have seen increases of 548% since that same year. On the federal level, expenditures exploded with increases of 749%. The United States Department of Justice indicates that our nation spends more than $70 Billion Dollars every year on corrections and prisons. One that does not work. Our country spends another $40 Billion Dollars per year on its judicial system, and an additional $100 Billion Dollars on police and law enforcement personnel. A combined investment of $210 Billion Dollars every year. We have grown blind and woefully tolerant of a mammoth corrections system that simply does not work.

We Don't Accept Gross Failure In Any Other Industry
If I were to come running over to you and hand you an all expense paid vacation to any destination of your choice, would you accept the airline ticket? Most likely. What if you found out that the airline the ticket was purchased from only had a success rate of 23%, would you accept the ticket then? Most likely not! If any other commercial vendor were publicly exposed as having such an atrocious track record as Corrections, that proprietor would soon find himself out of business and in the unemployment line.

Better Off Investing Elsewhere
Think of the awesome transformation our country would enjoy if we were to take a fraction of that $210 Billion and invest it more wisely into other critical areas of infrastructure that are in dire need of the infusion of cash, such as higher quality public education to reduce the illiteracy rate among poorer neighborhoods, medical care for the 80 million who cannot afford it, free college tuition for anyone who wanted to enroll, business ownership training to reduce the 40% poverty level, and so on.

Other Countries Fixed Theirs, Why Can't We Fix Ours?
If the Europeans can fix their corrections system, why can't we? Why not rehabilitate these men and women and help them to integrate as productive members of society leading more fulfilling lives?
