Incarceflation: The ballooning or
rapid increase in prison population,
incarceration
This all points up that incarceflation is with us: Even though
incarceflation is not yet listed in the dictionaries, the condition
definitely exists in the United States. On December 31, 2004, 2,135,901
prisoners
were held in Federal or State prisons or in local jails - an
increase of 2.6% from yearend 2003, less than the average annual growth of
3.4% since yearend 1995. There has been a steady increase over the years.
THE PRESENT SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING. There is a persistent rise in the prison
population. Parole is being held out a an anti-inflationary measure. Reform
is needed. Many think the present Federal Justice System is unjust. There is
a retention of prisoners who can be released, those with no violence, no
priors, no fines, no restitution. The present system lacks rehabilitation
programs. Incarceflation is caused by the misconception that prison
sentences reduce crime.

The numbers are horrible. the conditions are worse, the
benefits are doubtful, the cause is questionable:
TALK ABOUT PRISONS, SENTENCES, COSTS.
OLD PEOPLE IN PRISON.
HARDWICK, Ga. - Razor wire topping the fences seems almost a joke at the
Men's State Prison, where many inmates are slumped in wheelchairs, or
leaning on walkers or canes.
It's becoming an increasingly common sight: geriatric inmates spending their
waning days behind bars. The soaring number of aging inmates is now
outpacing the prison growth as a whole.
Tough sentencing laws passed in the crime-busting 1980s
and 1990s are largely to blame. It's all fueling an explosion in inmate
health costs for cash-strapped states.

"One in thirty-three American children, and one in
eight African American children, go to sleep each night denied
access to a parent because that parent is behind bars. One out of
every ten children has a parent under criminal justice supervision -
in prison, on probation, or on parole.
Despite these staggering numbers, however, the
children of the incarcerated remain largely invisible." "In All
Alone in the World, award-winning journalist Nell Bernstein provides
an intimate and at times heartbreaking look into the lives of these
children and their families.
Having spent the last five years researching and
writing about the children of prisoners, Bernstein explores many
different sides of the issue, ranging from children's experience at
the time of their parents' arrest, to unnecessarily harsh laws and
policies that force even low-level offenders to forfeit parental
rights, to proposals for alternative forms of punishment that take
into account the status of prisoners who are also mothers and
fathers."-- Children of Incarcerated Parents, Nell Bernstein
