This was a good video, giving my thoughts after actually finishing it:

The jail system here is busted as fuck, even an industry unto itself. The Germans, Austrians, Norwegians are leagues ahead in how to handle criminals. The difference of what they do is they treat people with human dignity. In USA, we treat them by taking everything away with them and reducing them to dirt. No one learns anything that way, all they learn is anger.

Sure, there are some criminals who will not learn. But if these other places have lower recidivism rates, how can you argue with that? At least give people a chance, and let them have some dignity.
