Read “Why Prisons Don’t Work”. See attachment to read.
Write an argument essay in which you take a stand for or against the assertion that prisons exist so that “politicians can sell the illusion that permanently exiling people to prison will make society safe” You should write a well-designed and logical argument in which you take a stand based on this essay and your own scholarly research. For example, you may take the position that prisons do keep society safe, or you may take the position that prisons do not keep society safe. Remember that an effective argument recognizes all sides of an issue. Therefore, your essay should first support your assertion (in the first two body paragraphs).
