Prison reform would fix it but would anyone have the stomach to do what’s needed. And what’s that, you ask?
You go to prison, you’re going to work your butt off in the fields from sun up to sun down, and that food is what you will eat, and the excess will be sold to the community.
You don’t want to work? You can starve. Or voluntarily take a bullet. Whichever.
What you’re not gonna do is sit on your lazy rear end in a jail cell all day and bum off the People because you decided to commit crimes.
