Very true. I recall watching a video from I think Sweden (some Scandinavian country) in which they were showing their prisons, even for murderers. They were isolated from the main society, but given freedom, respect, a beautiful environment in contact with nature and trained in skills they could use once they got out. I can't even describe just how different it was in so many ways from how the US does prisons. Basically they were rehabilitating members of their community, not punishing those they considered to be animals. Their recidivism rate is of course way, way lower than ours in the US is. No surprise though. This system isn't meant to rehabilitate. It is meant to punish as far as citizens are concerned, and profit from slave labor as far as the prison industry is concerned.
