    Some sources state this number is as low as 4, some go as high as 41. It all depends how many people you interact with per day, in a big city it's likely. If you interact with about 25 people per day for 70 years, you've likely encountered 10 murderers, based on statistics.

    What is the point of that? Someone "serves" a term that feels years, decades or centuries long, but is released in 8 hours, to return to a life of crime? More draconian prison terms don't reduce recidivism, and they increase institutionalisation, alienation from society, and emotional trauma. What will happen is you get angry, traumatised criminals who can't sucessfully reintegrate into society, but have a long remaining lifespan to reoffend, and will be released quickly enough that their criminal contacts will still exist. Society isn't being protected, criminals aren't being reformed, criminal networks aren't being broken up. It may reduce the cost of each 'prison term' but if it just means the cycle of offence-imprisonment-release-reoffense is accellerated, the crime rate will increase, cost of policing and trying crimes will soar, and everyone will be worse off.

    Why can't they make it so I could learn a skill in an hour instead of 5 years ;) Also and this may just be me, but they sense of justice may not work out the same way for potential victims, that could face the person already the next day again.

    Because it doesn't compress time, it only makes you FEEL the same you would as if you'd served 1,000 years. You don't actually LEARN anything.

    Shouldn't we be focusing on rehabilitation?

    How about we address the social and economic reasons that lead to the majority of crimes so that the real and actual criminals can be dealt with and drug addicts and uneducated people can get help.

    Would be good, if they could attend school, learn a trade and visit a psychiatrist in those 1000 years.

    The joke's on them. An 8 hour workday can feel like 1000 years.

    Yeah I call b******t. Maybe in a few thousand years. but we aren't anywhere close to being able to control the human experience that precisely or safely to make this something that would ever be done.

    Surely they should be made to feel like an 8-hour sentence lasts 1000 years? That would teach them...

    I think this is something we need to incorporate into the US prison systems. I can see it as a general deterrent and possibly make people think twice about committing a crime. Our prisons wouldn't be over populated, crime rate would go down as well. I think tax payers would be happy as well.

    You're forgetting that in many places, people are put in prison for committing what are minor offences in other countries - for example, totalitarian countries that do not want their citizens practising free speech; countries where women or certain races have little or no rights; or even in the US, being jailed for possession of tiny amounts of drugs, or inability to pay fines/taxes. Do you think jail would deter these people when they have not committed a major crime? And the crazed rapists or serial killers are willing to take the chance or they wouldn't commit their crimes. That leaves a very small section of people who might actually be swayed by this.

    Right because of all those plane crash survivors. After a 600 mph uncontrolled impact with the ocean I can see how the lifeboat capacity would be a real issue.

    After checking, shellac is a secretion used to make protective tunnels, not an excretion (poo)..
