A good bicycle can cost $3,000. In most states theft over $1,000 or $1,500 is a felony. That means over a year in prison.
And trust me no one gets caught stealing their first bicycle. By the time they get caught they probably stolen dozens of them, it's some meth head who just makes a habit of stealing other people's property.
These are exactly the kind of people that cages are built for. If they had any kind of self control or productivity in society they wouldn't be going to jail
I had a 700 dollar bike stolen from me so not cheap but not high end either, anyways I think maybe a week in jail would be ok. But even that IтАЩm not sure of. Too many factors to consider like what number offense the person is on , the absence of free will and if for certain crimes like stealing there may be more rehabilitative consequences than being locked in a room.
Bikes are many peopleтАЩs main form of transportation in cities! Also they are not cheap! A low end bike for an adult starts around $400. A high end bike could be $5,000 plus. I have a bike that cost more than what I sold my old Jeep Cherokee for.
Holy cow remind me not to steal your bike!

Yikes remind me not to steal your bike either!
Looks like deterrence works. Amazing how easy is not to steal someone's bike.

As soon as they earn enough money in jail to replace the stuff they stole they can be released. I think that sounds very fair.
