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.

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.

I'm saying that, with varying states who have engaged in criminal punishment for hundreds of years, we actually have a fairly robust data set to examine.

Having interacted with more of these "shitty citizens" in a month than you will in a lifetime, I'm very comfortable saying that your generalization is off base and that a vanishingly small percentage of people involved with the criminal justice system are incorrigible.
