edwardspoonhands did a really good video a while ago on mass incarceration in the US that I was recently reminded of.  Its really informative and well done and only about 4 minutes long

Basically, the United States has the highest incarceration rate of any country in the world, but is still not more effective in reducing crime.  Additionally, the US focuses much more on punishing prisoners than rehabilitating them, so many continue to commit the same crimes after being released.  There are also issues of racism in the justice system, especially in drug sentencing.

Here are some more links to articles about incarceration in the US

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_incarceration_rate - mostly statistics, but also some information on the causes of the high incarceration rate

http://www.prisonpolicy.org/global/ - discusses individual states more in depth and compares US incarceration rate to that of other countries

Okay, so I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while now, but I’ve decided to move completely over to my other blog.  It started as a purely doctor who blog, but has kinda just turned into what this blog was.  Anyway, I’m probably not gonna be posting on this blog anymore (unless I change my mind about this entire thing at some point), so if you wanna follow me on my other blog, its url is romanadvoratrelundarwho.  If you want to know more of why I’m doing this, read under the cut.  Thanks for understanding guys!
