. Prison there is just what it is.
By the time you've done your stay in there your pretty much a husk of what you used to be.

Either that or you've been turned into a violent psychopath (if you weren't one already) and then released upon society.
I'd rather see our prisoners in forced manual labour/education programs than punished just for the sake of it. I'm a huge proponent of rehabilitating prisoners. Obviously, some are just psychos and beyond help. Others come from bad backgrounds and both society and the prisoner will be better off if they gain employment and education skills while in prison.
The idea of guards allowing prisoners to participate in violence and crime while in prison is distasteful in every way.
