I think your post is very valid and it makes us stop and think about the way things are done here as opposed to elsewhere. I'm not sure I'd like to see this happening here but I do agree that pinishment here has ceased to be very punishing. How can it be considered a punishment when murderers can obtain a university degree whilst in prison - somehting they would never have been able to manage out in the real world. Going to jail has given them an advantage in life. Something wrong there somewhere.
