Everyone makes mistake in life, as no one is perfect. Sometimes, these mistakes are so severe that they make a permanent impact on another person's life. At other times, it is less significant. I disagree that everyone who commits less serious crimes such as littering in public areas, stealing food because of hunger, or smoking in prohibited areas, to be sent to jail. In this essay, I will elaborate further on my point of view.
Firstly, people who committed crimes have already done the damage. Therefore, they should contribute to the society as an apology. It will not only make the society a more beautiful and cleaner place to live, it also acts as a time-out sessions for people who committed minor crimes to self realize. This will serve as a lesson to them that every action they do, will lead to a consequence.
Secondly, if they are sent to the prison, they are wasting more resources. Placing more people in the prison will require more guards to take care of them. In addition to that, it will also require the government to build more building to accommodate the inmates and there is no benefit to this. Instead, money should be used to provide moral education to everyone who commit crimes.
To sum up, I do not agree for everyone who commits a crime to be sent to the prison as this is a waste of resources. On the other hand, they should be made to serve the community and make the country a better place to stay.
