Our government arrests and imprisons too many people.

Care to elaborate? Where do you see the greatest problems?

Care to elaborate? Where do you see the greatest problems?

Society is so messed up it is hard to know where to start. Medicaid is used by the teacher's Union to forcibly drug kids age 5 - 12 who act like boys. Those kids are prevented from learning self-control and self-discipline. Then, when they are teens we wonder why they do what they do.

Police departments are run by people concerned about their budget and how to maximize revenue and create the statistics that will impress funding sources. Police indiscriminately arrest gang members with no actual knowledge of them committing any crime. The police assume well they must be guilty of something. The prosecution and defense attorneys make the same assumptions. Numerous times when I had a friend falsely accused, it was impossible to find a defense attorney that would even consider the possibility that the kid was innocent.

The RINO Republican frames Rolando Cruz for murder and tries to murder Cruz to prove to the voters that this RINO is tough on crime. Democrat Prosecutor Daley does exactly the same thing to the innocent Ford Heights Four. After many years in prison and long court appeals to avoid the chair, the innocent are finally released. Incidents like this happen and get attention at the murder level.

But the many innocent Rolando Cruz's charged with something less than murder get no attention.

Funding the bureaucracy motivation for bad police behavior has the counter-productive effect of turning kids on the street very cynical and hardened about crime. They will be accused and convicted whether they are innocent or guilty. So they might as well get the benefits of being guilty before they do their inevitable time in jail.

And yes, many kids see a life in jail for them as inevitable. In exactly the same way that from age 2 I assumed that, of course I would go to Wheaton College, they see that of course they will go to Crook County Jail or Stateville.

Medicaid forcing drugged kids and police bureaucracies chasing money are just two of the many problems in our messed up society.
