Noooooo, what you're saying is to make the prison owners (slave owners) more money while getting them young. Private prisons and mental hospitals should be abolished. There are other countries that have free mental health hospitals and prisons that aren't horrendous that are publicly owned. They're doing it right.
Example please
Examples please. 🤦♂️
The Netherlands. Very low incarceration rates, publicly owned prisons, mental health support for all inmates, mental health checklists for reintroduction jn society. Results: low crime rates, low spending.
Norway is an excellent example.

Google it dude, it's not a secret.
