Do you think this prison model will work in the US?

Breh the block will look like the ending of Fresh Prince with Will standing in a empty house.

Everybody will be trying to catch a body to live a life of luxury

I doubt you have much evidence of that happening in those places. While, strangely, it DOES happen here despite terrible conditions, because prison has fukked some people up so bad.

With a prison like this one, a lot of poor & homeless people would commit crimes just to go live there.

If prison was like this here , homeless people would be going on crimesprees just to get arrested and live the best lives they ever lived

I don't think y'all understand much about homelessness. While a scenario like this might help a lot of them, it sure as hell ain't what they're going to strive for on purpose.

Yes rehabilitation is key but obviously there are some sick mu’fukkaz /mentally unstable that need to be locked in cages but vast majority should be like this

Prisons were not built here to rehabilitate and reduce recidivism. They’re just an extension of slavery.

Yes it has to be better than what we've been doing.

This. Open up a prison like this and you’ll have half of the Coli up in there chillin within the year. Prison should be feared so you don’t do the crime, not encouraged. Bring back chain gangs and rock bustin. Fuk is a serial killer/rapist doing getting 3 hots and a cot when he should be working till near death…

no because the prison system is based around corporations and lobbying from interest groups (police unions, etc.)

Working folk can’t even afford healthcare and can barely make rent payments. Imagine the outrage if prisoners started getting better care than the average citizen?

I don't thnk so. There are programs available for those who really want to transition back into society, and they don't have to commit any crimes to be eligible.
