I believe in the abolition of the Prison Industrial Complex.  This is being developed to potentially help identify influential variables in the growing prison population, and potentially how to reverse that trend!

This model is so far developed from the Prison population model developed in:
Blumstein, Cohen and Miller. Demographically Disaggregated Projections of Prison Populations. Journal of Criminal Justice. 1980.
