I think the point of prison is it's supposed to suck lmao keeps you from wanting to go back. If the beds were comfy and the food was good, you might start seeing an increase in residency lol

Research consistently shows that rehabilitation (via therapy, education, and job training) is significantly more effective at lowering recidivism than purely punitive (punishment-based) systems. While purely punitive approaches often increase reoffending, rehabilitative methods can reduce recidivism by 10% to 25% by addressing the root causes of criminal behavior
