I've been writing some thoughts down about the prison system in America and why it is the way it is. I was wondering if you have an opinion on the topic>

I believe the prison system in America is fundamentally flawed and perpetuates an unequal system of punishment. It disproportionately incarcerates individuals from marginalized communities, leading to inequality and a lack of access to resources for those who have been incarcerated. The system also prioritizes incarceration over preventative solutions such as mental health support and vocational training, perpetually feeding the criminal cycle.
