The Anarchist in me says exile from polite society (while still providing basic necessities) for major crimes. Minor crimes I don't have an answer for, but prison slavery isn't the answer.
In an ideal society, things like trash pick-up would still happen, but on a more horizontal field.
Exactly. I know there are ways to still have some type of punishment for crimes, while still treating people humanely and in actual conditions. Not like prisons now and certainly not like prison slavery.
Yeah I agree, maybe these were more socially accepted back then but now we know better and should strive to do better. Taking care of these people at least as a first resort would probably do more for them than forcing them to do hard labor. And if they must work then its probably better to treat them well while they work like if they were a cashier at a restaurant being paid normal wages instead of being basically a slave
I would encourage you to look into prison abolition. I think there's a disconnect between us here, even though we fundamentally agree on the same thing.
