1. As I've said before, prison contradicts feminism's idea of equal pay and equal rights to vote. It's not just that inmates are paid less than the minimum wage. It's that many of them are unemployed. That might be part of why suicide is the leading cause of death among prisoners. As Warren Farrell says, "Unemployed men commit suicide at twice the rate of employed men. Among women, there is no difference in the rate of suicide based on whether or not the woman is employed." Feminism, which some say says "my body, my choice." Yet inmates don't have the liberty to decide where there bodies will be. Feminism is claimed to be pro-choice, but incarceration reduces inmates ability to choose various things like where they'll be, where they'll go, what they can buy, how often they see people they want to see, etc.
2. Abolitionism seems to be the fulfillment of the pledge of allegiance, which says there should be "liberty and justice for all." It says "all," not "some." Then there's the statue of "liberty," which is an important symbol of this country. It's not called the statue of "incarceration" or some other related word. A true patriot would oppose incarceration because the Declaration of Independence calls for "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
3. Libertarians are against liberty for not supporting abolition, despite the fact that the root word of libertarianism is liberty. In general, right wingers are not supporters of liberty even though Barry Goldwater said, "Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice and moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue." Abolition does seem to be extreme, yet reasonable.
