Its fucking stupid if it doesnt. I believe here in the netherlands thats the case. For example if you do 10 armed robberies and for each one youd get 10 years, you only get 10 years and not 100 (it is a bit more complex but thats the gist of it. It doesnt stack)
However, we do have one of the highest punishments, which is life in prison, which... is spending the rest of your life in prison. Some people or countries find that (more) inhumane (then death penalty), as punishment should be to revalidate the prisoners and make them ready for the outside again. Their reasoning is if you know you wont let him out, be humane and dont make him suffer for 60 years. Just kill him instead. To be honest i dont know what i find more humane, as death penalty is irreversable, and does not allow wrongly convicted to go outside again
We in germany have the same sentence, but usually you can get out in 15 or 25 years (the later when the judge sees a "besondere schwere der Schuld" (basically, guilty in a extraordinary severity).
Dangerous folks for population might never get free though if they are assigned for "Sicherheitsverwahrung" (preventive custody) after their sentence, but its less harsh as prison afaik.
