The question of “What causes Mass Incarceration” has Several different answer dynamics. The first dynamic that comes to mind is the concept of ‘ 3 Strikes and You are out’. Thinking out loud as I write this;it may work great in Baseball and Softball sports;but it doesn’t necessarily take into account A human beings ‘Learning Curve’. Secondarily, the issue has happened where “Substance abuse” has been defined by W.H.O. and other National Health Organizations most recently as a ‘Medical/Health Issue’; and not so much as a ‘Moral’ choice that needs to be corrected and/or rehabiitated.
Thirdly, although Not necessarily less Important; is that it is a “Social Institution” that supports How the Free Worlds Economies support themselves–so as to deal with Food Production, Energy Production,etc. -
