Topic: Non Violent Offenders

A proposed reform for the criminal justice system involves using a person's UBI to cover their food and housing costs during incarceration, or using technology like ankle bracelets for home confinement. This would reduce the reliance on the private prison industry and prevent the trauma associated with violent prison environments for non-violent offenders. By maintaining an income floor, former inmates are less likely to return to crime out of economic necessity upon release.
