Hehehe
I'm under the impression that the system isn't about punishment as much as it is about protecting society from harm. If a prisoner can be "cured" by some sort of reform program, then he or she is no longer viewed as a harm, and is therefore released back into society. What do you guys think about that sort of thing?
Ooh, and what if the reform program thing was sort of like that good ol' Alex went through in a Clockwork Orange... mayebe a bit less torturousy. Consider just the basic idea of a person not being able to choice right from wrong; while that freedom is lost, the freedom of not causing any major problems and getting in trouble is given. Would this be moral or immoral to you?
