If ourt society put more effort into stopping poverty and preventing violent crime before it happens

Well, it would cost a lot, but as a result of it, we might save even more by having less of our population incarcerated.
We live in a country with a booming prison industry and a backwards system of punishment.
Instead of putting people into prisons where they lose their sanity, why not put them in a place where even while being punished, they're given some basic respect?
Where they're taught working skills instead of being thrown in solitary? Where you earn back freedoms by bettering yourself?

You can't end poverty.  There will always be rich people and poor people.  Giving poor people money and such isn't going to make them work any harder in the future, it will just cause them to do even less and just expect more to be given to them for doing nothing. 

At least that is how I look at it.

We lock many of them up so they don't steal, assault, rape, and murder more innocent people.

Many are parasites that have nothing to offer, and once released they commit more crimes in a matter of days.

There is no amount of money that can fix people like this, they are just leeches on society.

I'm in poverty and if I had money I would invest in illegal activities without a doubt. 

Some people are just fucked in the head like me.

I'm guessing quite a few people learn that kind of lifestyle while in prison for some non violent drug crime. A criminal record is not exactly the most impressive thing to have on your resume either, making some more likely to turn to petty theft etc.

Plenty of people are just going to steal, rape, murder, ect because its just who they are. However, there are a lot of people out there who would do good given the chance. It's just too bad the government cares more about arresting people for victimless crimes like pot and spending billions on it instead of idk, using it for something to better the economy. And I agree with Psi, most of the people I know who have been to prison come out much worse. on most job applications "having a criminal record doesn't necessarily ban you from employment" lol doesn't necessarily, should finish it with "but it most likely will". No wonder people turn to petty theft and such.

Fuck petty theft.  Go big or don't steal at all.

Why steal 500-1k when you could steal 10000 with time and effort and learning.  Theft is dumb but if your going to do it do it big.
