What's going on in Norway? I'm out of the loop.
The Norwegian prison system emphasizes rehabilitation over punishment. Norwegian prisons are generally decent places. Turns out that treating prisoners like human beings makes them much less likely to reoffend and go back to prison.
But if they don’t go back to prison, how are private for-profit prison owners supposed to keep collecting easy, lucrative checks from the government?
By moving to 'murica, duh!
I would benefit from some rehab
What's really fascinating is that in Norway this is generally seen as a good thing.
