I watched Dr. Gabor Mate speaking about how serial addicts all share a common developmental problem, they were abused or abondoned repeatedly as infants, and so were incapable of proper brain development...but since neuroplasticity shows the brain can develop even in later life, there is hope, if they can find ways to develop - which is always in the presence of compassion, not exactly what we give them in jail...jail just further ingrains their addictions.
He said that our system punishes people for being abused from the start, marginalizes them from society, preventing them from holding meaningful jobs ever, when what they really need is compassion and ways to develop.
