Generally speaking, In the world of culture, media and communication, the US is the giver and we're the reciever (we're a tiny country) so most US citizens may not be aware that prisons where inmates are not being punished so much as rehabilitated actually exist. To show that alternatives not only exist but that they also work is a highly valid argument, but I realize it would reflect better on me if I started using examples from other countries than my own.

No, you are certainly correct. I was just teasing you. This isn't the first time you have brought up your country and they are obviously doing things right by using alternative methods.
