I don't see the idea of prison being about rehabilitation and education being remotely radical.
It seems to be a fairly common idea, even if it's not always put into practice. That's why prisoners are allowed free University education and job training, and counselling while serving their sentence, at least in Canada, and I think the U.SI don't understand though, acknowledging a difference between sane and insane acts, but having the same length of incarceration for both.
I agree with Diedrehbrt on that issue for sure.
