“Are Prisons Obsolete?”
When I was younger I was told if you did a crime you would be sent off to a prison too do time as your punishment. Not until I was older did I realize the problems that were really going on with our prison system. This was a place they sent people who had done bad things to be isolated from the rest of society, where there supposed to think about there crime and for some to never see the outside every again. Some say that prison is a place to reform an inmate so when they do come out of the system he or she can be a better citizen. With the number of inmate on the raise every year one would think that within the past 10 years there would have been some type of change in the prison system, with more people going to jail
