Incarceration, it's pretty much like anything else, you get what you can out of it. If you want, somehow you can find time to read, to better yourself and all that. You could also go to Bubba's car stealing school, the guy they say could steal an army jet, and come out with a useful skill. Of course that depends on how you want the rest of your life. when you walk in there green, what is the first thing that will be discussed ? How you got caught of course. People share information, like in some sort of camp or something.
The thing to realize about going to the joint is that you are in a different venue, but the people are not all that much different. Of course there are the Father rapers, Mother killers and all that, but in there at least you know it. Out here you know nothing. And you are not the only guy there who made a mistake on his tax form now having to join a gang of Father rapes to get by and not be somebody's bitch. There are places like that but you generally don't get there on your first try.
Most likely you'll meet a couple of people you know, then you're pretty good to go.
At the worst you get hooked up with isabella the fella and she wants you to lick her clams. Well half the people in the world have no problem with shit like that anyway, so, so what ?
What gets me about this whole incerceration thing is that it really is the threat, not the act that impels compliance. You are out, in your house, home whatever and you like it there. They are going to put you where it is not your domain, where your word is not law and you can't change shit. Aggravating of course. Thing is, once you get there and get out, 90% of the time you think "that wasn't all that bad". Of course there are times when it is, but not all the time.
When you get past the threat of it they can smell it or something. If you look at the happenings in my life in the last few years or decade, whatever, they know they got nothing on me. Cuff me and stuff me, you know what I say ? "So now I don't have to cook, work and pay bills ? Keep me forever". The tactic goes beyond that. Catch a DUI and don't have the bail on a Staurday night, refuse the phone call. Tell them straight out "I have noone to call". You'll be out in a half hour.
Actually the main problem with prison is that it takes too damn long. You get out and don't know what kind of car is what, noplace to stay, people died or moved, everything you had once is gone. Getting out sucks almost as bad as going in.
People who know what they're doing can work the prison system like any other. Fancy a guy who goes in with money, opens a "store", makes money. Then wins a lawsuit against the institution. King of the hill, just like life. Money talks. You think any rehabilitation is going on ?
Rehab is a tweeting butterfly that only lands on trees, and alas all we have is flowers. It's fucking joke, because first of all they don't want to rehab anyone. Might dry you out a bit because drugs and shit are so expensive there, but rehab ? Nope, that is counterproductive.
You see cities and states get money back from the feds to fight crime. Cities and states also get some money back from the fed for every prisoner in the system. So of course the most logical action is to imprison the innocent and let the guilty go free. And with recidivism, you are assured of X amount of repeat customers. Actually it is looking up, because as they incarceate more and more for bullshit, most gain an education on how to fuck the system.
I'm just waiting for the results.
