      Pro tip: If you’re gonna steal from a bank, steal from a Norwegian one.

        Is there a back story to this that I don’t know?

          Norwegian prisons are famously relatively humane compared to most other countries

            They have a better quality of life than low-income US citizen. Except for, you know, not being able to leave.

            Here’s an article about one of those prisons on an island: https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidnikel/2020/07/01/basty-norways-island-prison-where-inmates-work-ski-and-watch-tv/

              Yes, I agree, but

              • they’re not all as nice as that one
              • the US is especially bad
              • Norwegians who aren’t in prison have a way higher quality of life
              • not being able to leave is still a pretty big deal
