"If only we lock up this one more person, _then_ it'll finally be clear."

How's prison working out as a deterrent, generally?

It works fine. Just because some people can't stop themselves from committing crimes, that doesn't mean the general public doesn't respect deterrents.

There are so many things I wouldn't do because I know I'd get in trouble.
