It's the same in Italy.No funds to build/handle prisons properly (but plenty of funds for the establishment to steal for themselves), so the law is constantly modified to reduce jail time for everyone.
As a result, felons learn that the risk for felonies is lower, and they're tempted to do more misdeeds. At the same time, the government imports people who are more likely to commit crimes to begin with.
The combined effect is that jails are full again (with short-timers).
So the cycle starts anew.
The end result will be the fall of civilization.
