The misery index bottoms out in 1998 and the crime rate bottoms out in 1999
There is visual evidence that there may be a connection

Relationships Between Stocks and Flows: Coordinating CJSRelationships Between Stocks and Flows: Coordinating CJS In equilibrium:
• Inflow = Outflow
The outflow is proportional to the stock• Outflow = k * Stock
• constant of proportionality, k, equals one divided by mean time served
– Admits * mean years served = stock of prisoners

The public wants more convicts sent to prison
But prisons are full So, what happens?

capacity If you increase admits per capita per year,
then average years served decreases until prison capacity catches up
