Lets see how it is done:

Despite the popularity of prison sentences as the way to control illegalities,


improvements on education have gained social endorsement as a means to
eliminate the problem from its root. In my opinion, I disagree that education
is the better one as it is rather impossible to compare these two methods
effectiveness owing to their distinct impacts.

On the one hand, the reasons why prisons are of indispensable necessity for
social security are varied. They are the place to keep people who have broken
the law contained, ensuring the safety of other citizens. Especially, dangerous
criminals such as murderers or rapists have to be imprisoned for their heinous
actions. Furthermore, severe prison sentences act as a deterrent against
crimes. Knowing there might be a chance of getting caught and condemned
to jail, which also means losing freedom and living a miserable life in a cell,
ones who are having the intention of committing illegalities would reconsider
going down the path.

On the other hand, education serves as a remedy for the origin of crimes.
Education contributes greatly to heighten peoples intellect and to form a
civilized society. With access to better educational services, citizens would be
well-informed about the damage that committing crimes would cause to
their community and themselves, which eventually leads to the decline in
crime rates. Additionally, the possession of certain qualifications through
fundamental education like vocational training could secure a persons stable
life, which would dispel any ideas of committing crimes.

In conclusion, I believe there is no absolute way to deduce whether


imprisonment policies or better education would take the dominant role in
dealing with crimes as they both tackle the problem just in different ways.
