Sadly, that's true. Reduced sentences will really have a great effect on a all these repeat offenders, giving them the message "Do the crime and you won't do the time".
Except that there is zero evidence that this is the case. In fact, there is evidence that the longer the sentence for non-violent offenses, the more likely the individual is to recidivate.
But, by all means, regale us with your "common sense" notions of what the criminal justice system should look like.

Your correlations are narrow and shortsighted. Offender A has been sentenced to a "longer" sentence which forces him to recidivate. Oh please. Ever stop to think they are just shitty citizens and will commit hundreds of detected or undetected crimes without consideration of their sentence? Stop blaming the system and blame the offender for once.
