Prisons are formed around the idea of deterrence by fear rather than morality, and the argument contains three parts:
1. For those who have been imprisoned, the prison experience should be sufficiently distasteful to convince them that crime needs to be avoided.
2. Imprisonment serves as a deterrent for the great mass of citizens who totter on the edge of breaking the law.
3. Keep known criminals out of circulation
