[QUOTE="SMS, post: 3252733, member: 42"] Good question. I imagine that answer would be highly subjective depending on who you ask, especially in an Internet forum. But that question doesn’t invalidate the other question. I’m sure there is also tons of data on DUI recidivism, and the intentional and scientific study of that data could reveal patterns and predictions with which to base punishments on vs basing them off of emotional reactions. In Oklahoma, we lock people up at twice the national rate. We lead the world in putting people in the slammer, at a cost of like $20k per prisoner per year to the taxpayers. Do we want to keep pumping that money into private prisons or maybe take a look to see if we can work smarter? [/QUOTE]
