On the whole point of my question about the other person who is incarcerated, if the goal is to make things safer through less recidivism, my first question is whether that's the result you're getting. Is there less recidivism? Second, if you're eliminating all these robberies and violent people, then the people who need it the most are the ones who are going to have the most dangerous recidivism. We're denying them treatment that could make communities safer.
