IMO, the Supreme Court needs to take a good hard look at them. I firmly believe that
1) the punishment should fit the crime
2) once debt is paid to society, it is paid. I honestly feel that the Three Strikes approach is a sentencing version of double jeopardy. It is also a discarding of a citizen completely, so why not just put a bullet in his head? He/she is already being thrown in the trash, figuratively speaking.
