What if we decriminalize and the crime rate spikes? What then?


This argument makes the bold assumptiom that current incarceration is keeping crime "low". Has it ever occured to some that prison is in fact contributing to the crime rate?

That's why I asked the question.

What evidence do you have that suggests higher incarceration rates lead to more crime?

I am also open to numbers and not just emotion.
