Dude.
I don't think that word "factually" means what you think it means. What do you know about what goes on in the minds of poor ppl or any ppl? 👀
Important point, the stats on arrests and incarceration are not and never have been objective measures of criminality. They are measures of who police and the rest of the system are geared to target. I don't work here but the ACLU used to have a good paper on why this is the case, though to me it's so patent it's a ridiculous premise on it's face.
Yessss. Talking in circles. Good job with the free rope! 🙉
How come whenever I listen to a free market guy on any topic I feel like they're running game....very poorly? I have no idea what this man is talking about. Just admit that you want to profit on incarceration. That's what it's actually about, right? Profiting from prisons and profiting from the "benefits" of removing the unsightly poors from "your" property. Just be honest about your perspective, this is maddening.
