This is far from a leftist concern. Even Ed Meese (who's responsible for a lot of this) and Heritage have a project concerning the over criminalization of America.

We have more people in prison than China. You comfortable with that? Yet, everyone wants to lock up more.

Hate to inject a dose of reality into your little world, but the relative peace we live in is due to the incarceration of the psychopaths who commit the crimes.
Am I comfortable with it? I thank heaven for penitenciaries!

China locks up a lot of political prisoners. If China had the criminals we have they'd just shoot them. I doubt the Chinese would feed some lowlife serial killer for 20 years - or even 5. Check it out - they kill 'em.
