The problem is prison itself. For most crimes, prison is an unnecessary diversion. For example, if you steal $500, make them pay back $1000. If they murder someone, execute them.

That said, I think prison does make sense within the context of prison labor. For example, you stole $500, blew it on hookers, and now have do work to pay back $1000.
