What I want is a prison system that tries educate and redeem short time inmates

So much this, the goal should be rehabilitation into society. I acknowledge that some crimes are too egregious, and it’s reasonable that if someone behaves in an egregiously sociopathic or psychopathic way, then they should rot in prison away from the rest of society.

I find that a lot of the extreme ideologies are often there to take away person power from achievable and practical goals.
