1- Should the death penalty exist as a punishment for murder or terrorism?

It depends on the circumstances like if the person did it intentionally he must be punished hard or he/she consider as a terrorist but if he did mistakenly than he must not be punished hard and he supposed to take some relaxation.

2- Should the main purpose of prison be punishment or rehabilitation?

The main person of prison must be not punishment because some people could bear the punishment but they did not change their slaves in a good way so rehabilitation should be the best way to teach and preach them that they did wrong in the past and they should not be like that. However, rehabilitation will play a good role in society which will make surely better future.
3- What is the best way to deal with juvenile crime such as?
Joy-riding:
Juvenile should be treated with in a good way like teach them in schools and tell them what can be the circumstances of their acts they should not be treated harshly because they are youngsters and if we teach them exact thing it will be helpful for future they can surely make a good society and it will decrease crime ratio as well because mostly people commit crime the age of 15 to 20.
Vandalism:
Vandalism should be band completely because it created by the Adults and they should not behave like that if they want to change something and something is being wrong with them they have to take a step against that but peacefully not destroying the public properties. Like couple of years ago it did happen in the London and the riots destroyed the public properties and burn the houses, they steal things which disturbed the whole UK. Firstly it started in London and then it spread to the whole country which made the cause of billions pounds and some people were killed in that strikes.

In my country Tax evasion is a big issue, people don't give tax to governments and that people are mostly millionaire are who can impose their impression on other higher post officer’s weather they are government employers. According to Kemal (2007) ''Rise in the underground economy creates problems for the policy-makers to formulate economic policies, especially the monetary and fiscal policies''.
