      The US has a highly prison centric justice system. They have more of their population incarcerated than any other country in the world.
      But they still have a higher recidivism and crime rate in every way than here or anywhere else in the developed world. Getting state sanctioned "revenge" on criminals doesn't stop them from offending again.
