How do all of these things come together in order to make proper decisions?

punishment decisions, but also proper rehabilitation decision.

Man, that's a good question.

I really don't know.

I think that we've institutionalized the process and we've demonized the other.

Instead of being really creative and innovative and thinking, okay, this is a problem, how do we overcome it?

We've gone back

to the English Australia model, where we're just going to put them away, right?

We're just going to send all the prisoners away.

And we do that today.

Instead of sending them away to a different country, we just lock them up.

But there's people in prison right now that are on drug charges.

There's nonviolence.

There's all kinds of reform that we could be doing.

And I advocate for using creative and innovative solutions to improve

not only our lot but everyone's lot on earth it is all about finding new ideas and taking chances on them to improve life when i think about it at a more macro level it leads to another one of your superpowers when i was thinking about it which is we should really be questioning the data

We need to look at data in new and different ways, right?

People look at data like it's the best thing ever, right?

Oh, I've got an Excel that shows me a certain thing and it must be true.

The problem is that, yes, there is a lot of analytic data that shows there's recidivism and people coming in and out of prison.
