Many people get distracted by the "luxury" element, but that isn't the crucial factor here. It's the "principle of normality" and humanisation. The contact officer, the ability to learn a trade and in general being able to live a normal life(without freedom) is what rehabilitates people, not the size of their TV... *And I have to point out that if a crappy TV and some IKEA furniture is considered "luxury" in your country, then you have more problems that just the prison system! :)*

Sometimes I get the question, are there many homeless people in Norway? Sometimes I answer briefly. In principle, we do not have homeless people in Norway. In 2006 we got NAV in Norway. NAV is a merger of the employment office, the social security office and the social services office. This is what NAV says Temporary accommodation (emergency) NAV will help you find a temporary accommodation if you urgently do not have a place to sleep and stay the next 24 hours. Who can get? NAV will find a temporary accommodation for you in emergency situations if you are unable to do this yourself. Such emergencies can be in the event of a fire, family or marital breakdown or if you have been evicted from the place where you lived. What can you get? NAV will find a concrete and accessible housing offer. If you do not have the money to pay for the temporary housing yourself, you can apply for financial social assistance. You can stay in a boarding house, hospice or other suitable accommodation. NAV must ensure that the temporary housing offer is justifiable. The requirement for housing is stricter if it is families with children or young people who are to use the housing. How long can you get? A temporary accommodation offer should help you in an emergency situation, and should only exceptionally last more than 3 months. NAV will give you advice and guidance to help you make a lasting housing offer. If you are unable to safeguard your interests in the housing market, the NAV office can assist you practically in obtaining a home by, for example, contacting landlords or joining a viewing. Statistics If you live in Norway, without a residential address, you will be defined as homeless. Those who are considered homeless in Norway make up 3,325 people. 2020 ( 0.62 per 1,000 inhabitants. ) The vast majority of homeless people have a temporary accommodation offer 67 percent were born in Norway. 1/3 Lives with family or friends. 1/3 Lives in temporary housing. 1/5 Are those who are discharged from an institution or imprisonment in two months, who do not yet have a home. Four years pass between each research. Researcher. "The decline in Norway is due to a long-term effort. The municipalities, and especially the large and medium-sized municipalities, have worked systematically over a long period of time to reduce homelessness." "Another finding is that there are very few without their own home who sleep outside or in a night home without a stay during the day (so-called emergency services). The vast majority of homeless people have a temporary accommodation offer." - Researcher Evelyn Dyb, NIBR, OsloMet (The numbers I have used are from here)

while prison reform is laudable, it doesn't address the brutal inequities that will await American prisoners upon release.

Think of the bigger picture here and be more objective. Basically all of America's biggest gangs were produced and cultivated in prisons.

They have tried doing that when they outsource prison labor as slaves for local farmers and people but here's the reality inmates are lazy unethical and immoral people who would have guessed they don't exactly make a good workforce so a farmer can't beat his slaves in 2022 and therefore the farmers canceled the contracts with the prison industry because the slaves don't work, and then there are plenty of lower level prisons that are work prisons called fire camps and other things and that's who does most of the firefighting in California for instance in the mountains are inmates

One thing that could help would be to lower the length of the prison sentences. In the US you can be put away 10 years for things that would only give you a fine, had you lived in Europe. Maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but the point is, people get locked up a lot longer than they need to be.

There are so many other factors as to why Norway has a lower rate of convicted criminals that reoffend after they are released from prison. It's the same with Switzerland, the citizens have a very high level of gun ownership, but you don't see the level of violence/murder rate in Switzerland like you do in America (it is not just because there is a larger population in America then Switzerland). Just compare the violent crime /murder rate in countries with a similar population to Switzerland (such as Honduras and El Salvador).

Wasn’t the mass shooter in downtown Sacramento early released and deemed a non threat? The state can’t even fix the homeless problem.

California prisons are Criminal University. Gang members learn so much about crime from other criminals, because once a person is criminal they have little to no chance going the traditional job route due to background checks. They make connections with other gang members from their county and the surrounding counties and all over the state if they are looking for particulars. They become desensitized to violence. It makes commiting violence an easier option for them once the come back out. They learn to survive, to combat other criminals and their groups, to evading and outsmarting outnumbered law enforcement, habits they take back home. Dehumanized more violent more intelligent criminals, that's what the California Department of Correction creates.

Killed in Norwegian prisons. On 4 March 1989, a young female prison guard from Ila prison was raped and killed. It was after a visit to the cinema, it was on the way back to Ila that it happened. Strong criticism was directed at the management. Today there are always two prison guards in such situations. The murderer was sentenced to 17 years, which he served but was not released. He died in prison on 20 Nov. 2019 11 December 1992 The clock has just struck midnight. an inmate got a gun in through a window, from a friend, they made a bit of noise and suddenly he hears someone coming down the stairs. Outside the door, a prison officer wonders what is going on, and the inmate replies that he wants to go to the toilet. (Today there are always 3 officers in such a situation) Inside the cell in Sarpsborg, the 23-year-old fires a shot at the chest of the prison officer at close range. which falls and stays on its back. As he lies dying outside the prison cell, the inmate runs up to the guard room and threatens the prison officer with his life. He forces the prison officer to drive to Oslo, the next day he surrendered. He received 17 years for the murder. A 56-year-old from Poland killed a fellow prisoner on 25 February 2017 in Ringerike prison. The person killed was 58 years old and a serial abuser who was in custody pending an extensive assault case with 39 victims. The youngest of the victims was 12 years old at the time of the crime. He was killed with a knife. He has explained that he does not like sex offenders, especially pedophiles. The man was sentenced to 21 years in prison He was serving a 17-year sentence after murdering a workmate in November 2014. Then he fired a shot at close range to the back of the head. "Wife abusers, pedophiles and rapists often end up in prison characterized by violence, threats and harassment," says a prison veteran. (This is done by the other inmates.) What they all have in common is that they have spent most of their adult lives behind bars.

Implementing this prison system would only be successful in the US if the entire society, government and ideologies got revamped. It would need a solid tax foundation (Norwegian prisons are extremely expensive) and it would require belief of second chances, something that many Americans struggle with. If you do a crime, you need some form of punishment. In Norway, you are punished by the fact you lose your freedom, but you don't lose your life and your ability to get back to society and change. This means that Norwegians are much less likely to re-offend. Norway's system is superior in just about every way (and ranked the best in the world), but as I said, it would require a total revamp of the US as a society and country..

They're also not considering the thug subculture aspect largely represented in prison system by comparison to Europe, so
