People have been arguing about punishment. Some people say that the punishment is not effective and morally wrong. However, others do not agree. They claim that the punishment is the only solution. 

In my opinion, the punishment never makes people better. Moreover, it makes them to perpetrate new crimes. There are some reasons for this point. First of all, there is no denying that last prisoners usually become criminals again. Secondly, atmosphere of prison spoils people and ruins their spiritual values: humanity, kindness,mercy, etc. Thirdly, prison makes people cruel and angry. As a result, it would more humane to change criminals inside, change their internal beliefs.
