Something like that. The current revolving door that has felons with multiple convictions honing their craft between stints in prison needs to end. Have some high walled prison, only for lifers, where it is known that you will never, ever get out & many more crimes eligible for the death penalty.
In the separate system where first timers that don't qualify for life or execution, make it a Sheriff Joe type. No A/C, no cable, no ""Work Out" area, work your ass off, sweat your ass off, eat day old bread, cheapest about to expire sammich meat, never want to go back to type of place. Either rehabilitate, or go to the "Never get out" place.
Also, eliminate a few thousand of the current nanny, drug, firearms, hate & other bullchit "laws", "Codes" whatever you want to call them. Cut the number of LEOs in half, pay them twice as much, enforce hiring standards that are twice as high & no GD unions allowed.
Problem solved.
