I would be willing to spend more if it meant that multiple time offenders spent full sentences and concurrent sentences behind bars.
I think a lot of people will echo your statements for most of the year, but when it comes time to mark a name on the ballot the guy who is going to increase taxes often doesn't fare too well.

I wouldn't be willing to pay more for increased levels of incarceration overall, but I would definitely pay more for increased treatment and rehabilitation for low level criminals and longer sentencing with more thorough parole reviews for more serious criminals.
