Go on then, give us the crime rate percentages for both the UK and USA and how these have altered in the past 10 to 15 years.
Do you honestly think that because prisons are not as bad as they used to be makes prisoners less likely to re-offend? I would have thought that common sense dictates the opposite is true.
