Christopher Glazek: Raise the Crime Rate (n+1)
The prison-industrial complex is huge and filled with criminal injustice. It is a blight on America and needs to be destroyed.
Abolishing prisons and releasing all the prisoners would amount to a deregulation of criminal punishment. It would mean letting the private sector determine how best to prevent ourselves from getting robbed. In high finance, the laissez-faire approach has proved to be a disaster; for petty crime, it would be a boon.
