It boils down to what those folks consider "incentives". For some, never setting foot in a prison again is incentive enough!Sure, nobody can be forced to participate in "Rehab" programs, but maybe there should be a better incentive to participating. Like if "Inmate A" completes 1 year of "X Job Skills Training" then they get guaranteed time off of their sentence. Like 1 year off for 1 year of participation. Something like that.
I know many prisons do have programs to participate in, but obviously they're not effective enough. The US has the highest incarceration rate per capita in the world. That is absurd.
Believe it, or not, many of the folks in jail/prison, have it better incarcerated than they do in the outside world. Some actually enjoy being locked up.
Ever seen that movie "Let's Go To Prison"? It may be a comedy, but it's also reality to a certain degree.
