Answer:
I will write more than a paragraph for you so you can get a bunch of ideas and since I'm only getting 5 points please keep in mind we can't just write essays for +5 points hehe
EDIT: Keep in mind that I can't use certain words because brainly won't let me post the answer so instead I say *heinous crimes*
My answer is:
While in most countries government systems believe that imprisonment will reduce the crime rate. I believe that's not always the case. Imprisonment will not completely solve the issue in itself and most cases are different. I think depending on the crime that was committed prison time may or may not be necessary. We also have to keep in mind the criminals history. Imprisonment is definitely necessary for criminals that committed ravishment, murder or some heinous crime (that's my opinion).
Though giving regular prison inmates the opportunity for higher education will reduce the amount of criminals there are in society. Statistically most criminals have a lack of education (though there are exceptions) most prisoners either come from families that are low-income or haven't received higher education. I do believe some individuals not willing to get a higher education have a lack of income, lack of support or have problems because of all that. There are also lack of resources in less developed countries. This makes some people steal, commit fraud or even some other heinous crimes in order to either make money or survive.
Explanation
If I'm being honest living in poverty shouldn't stop someone from attaining a higher education. I think MOST living in less developed countries that don't have those opportunities (lack of educational resources) or unable to pay for college continue to live in poverty because of that. Actually I'm sure most would love to prosper in the right way and attain higher education. Higher education is the key to getting OUT of poverty.
