Lawbreakers perform crimes at the expense of the innocent citizens and they end up in prison. By being imprisoned the judicially ensures that harmful people are not exposed to the citizens; it ensures that citizens are safe. It also serves as a punishment to ensure that recidivism does not occur. It also serves as a lesson to the potential criminals. The society is changing its structure as the prisoners are separated from their local environment. The economy is lowering due to the prisoners who lack the freedom of investment or selling their labor. In politics, some leaders are trying to interfere with the law by exerting their influence and power so that the criminal justice system can rule in their favor or preference. To deal with this issues, researchers and scholars have done literal works on the rising incarceration in the United States.
