Americans are more likely to institute something like 3 strikes. Or criminalize marijuana possession. Or champion "law and order" candidates who then clog the prisons with people who would not necessarily deserve hard time.
Look buddy, we have a prison guard union to protect and promote. California Prison guards average 6 figure salaries with ALL the government goodies, retirement at 45 with full pay, unlimited medical, the whole thing. AND they ALWAYS vote for the party! Damn right we're going to keep those prisons packed - every prisoner contributes to voted for the democratic party! We'll put you in prison for pissing in the bushes. (No, really - we will!)
