It's not really even relevant. El Salvador has a smaller population than New York City (6M vs 8M) and statistics don't really scale like that when you're comparing a country of 6 million to a country of 333 million. The US has 4.2% of the world population and 20% of the world incarcerated population. We have more than 3 times more people in prison than the total population of El Salvador.
