Which is worse?
Spending billions of usable dollars to build prisons for nonviolent "criminals"
-or-
Spending billions of usable dollars to fund for education?
The reason I ask is because this war on drugs is supporting exactly that. They're imprisoning responsible people and letting out child molesters and killers. How good is that for economy? I think the federal government shouldn't be going around busting people whenever the states' rights are supposed to come first... Free country? What do you think?
Scottie... I have read everything that I can on the internet about the subject, and so far judges are complaining that there's too much of an overpopulated prison system that's filled with people who don't even need to be in prison. For example, marijuana. It's HARMLESS and has no known deadly poisons. Yet, it's illegal compared to cigarettes and alcohol, both being very notorious for deadly intoxication and cancerous properties.
That doesn't even cover the fact that the rapists are having fun on the streets with lesser charges!

Hell yeah, wasting monies for drug addicts while molesters and rapist get set free. IN my area code alone we have 34 registered sex offenders walking around like nothing took place. We live in a screwed up world. Drug users needs rehab not jail time, it should be for the worst of the worst.
