    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
