Band 6.5

Some people think certain prisoners should be made to do unpaid community work instead of being put behind the bars. To what extent do you agree?

Everywhere in the world, nations are faced by some people who commit crimes. Somebody believes that putting some people in jails is not a good idea and
instead
, the government should enforce prisoners to participate in social activities for free. I agree with
this
 idea and I reckon, working unpaid is better than sending persons to jail. In
this
 essay, we are going to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of free work by certain guilty persons
instead
 of being these persons in jails. Since keeping persons as a prisoner requires a huge budget to expend for food, cloth, health and so on, so it is not easy for states to afford the costs, the monies can spend in other fields like education.
Furthermore
, there are many people in prisons who are delinquent or just arrested because of financial reasons like bankruptcy or even small crimes
such
 as hitting someone by accident. Keeping

Suggestion

this person
 has negative influence on them. On the top of that,
such
 prisoner has families who need them, undoubtedly.
Thus
, it is not a good idea to put
such
 people behind the bars. They can work for governments for free
such
 as, training their skills to others or making food for poor people. Applicant works are not advised for all offenders, of course. Most of the people who commit crimes are dangerous for society and have potential to break the law again. Because of that, getting

these people
this person
 out of the jail leads to anarchy, raising the illegal works and diminution of security in the community. To conclude, in my opinion, the government can reduce the number of prisoners by replacing their punishments and force some of them to do volunteer activities and expend the extra jail's budget in education and teaching the right way to live.
