It's less about what is spent on incarceration, and more about how state funds are spent in such away that people don't need to commit crime as much.

What money is spent on what, and where did the money come from? You seem to be in the know.

How much does it cost society when one percent of the population is incarcerated? But I digress; the US is not exactly a place which has been blessed in terms of access to natural resources so it’s an unfair comparison.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here, but that's the exact opposite of what I believe is true.
