It would be a long time before society could adjust to not inflicting punishment for a crime.

Prisons these days COULD emphasis rehabilitation, but they are really only for punishment and segregation.
But if rehab was as easy and inexpensive as a one dose pill, I'm sure America would give it a try...but they'd still want the purpetrators to suffer some punishment for their crimes.

It would take a highly evolved individual to suffer violent crime and quickly forgive the "fixed" criminal. Even for someone higher minded...there's still the natural grief process that takes at least a year to fully comprehend what happened let alone forgive it.
