SAVE JAIL SPACE; END WAR ON DRUGS

With "three strikes" and the war on drugs, I find it no wonder that
we're in the mess that we're in with the prison industry. These laws
have been clogging up the system, and all it took was a stock market
crash to really jam things up. Do we really want to prevent the
accident of felons going free just the moment they arrive at the
county jail? Fine, let's repeal the above laws to make room for them
and maybe for scam and ripoff artists too. And repealing laws against
prostitution would help as well. Otherwise, we'll continue downwards
in this area with money we don't have.
