A comment on School or Prison. Parent comment
It would be a contradiction if people only ended up in prison because they wanted to go.
In reality many people commit crimes for other reasons, like lack of food and shelter.
Its much harder to get a job with a criminal record, so many former criminals end up forced back into criminal activities for food and shelter.
