If you want to fight crime you reduce poverty. If want to fight crime you make each school in America a palace of learning. If you want to fight crime you eradicate unnecessary human suffering. If you want to fight crime you fight the origins of despair. You do not invade cities.

Instead, you look at the language of the 13th Amendment and realize what the actual goal is.

Lmao. You mean protect citizens?

Not necessarily. Poor people can be good and virtuous, and some can be slime. It’s a matter of upbringing.
I don't think the powers that be are adept at root cause analysis in the slightest.

So, you're saying spending to uplift instead of oppress is where the life-affirming money goes. But when a society seeks death - on some level - it spends more to incarcerate than it does to cultivate vibrant, healthy citizens? #Weird
No, you fight crime with unrelenting force. Guns, tear gas, batons. Make them suffer. This message brought to you by President Donald J. Trump. /s

There are a LOT of rich criminals in prison. This lie/stereotype that poor people become criminals because they're poor needs to end with you.
