Comment on In Maine, remote jobs give prisoners a lifeline

Comments

Prison has been proven to be a horrible idea (Stanford prison experiment) that turns normal people into monsters. The whole thing needs to be abolished.

Call me crazy, but the golden rule should be applied to all people. “Do to others what you would have them do to you”

I believe that if someone needs to be separated from others because they are dangerous or insane, the government should be obligated to say “this is what I would want done to me”, and treat them as such the entire time. Raw Punishment is asinine and insane, especially when the average person doesn’t even believe politicians who make the law are the most virtuous citizens.
