This paper is on crime and punishment. Crime and punishment should go hand in hand, but they don't always. Why think twice about committing a crime if you have little reason to fear the consequences? While those law-abiding families struggle to get by, many crime offenders, who do end up in prisons are getting three square meals a day, free workout and recreational facilities, and don't have to work. A phalanx of liberal attorneys are available to defend the prisoner's "rights" while the victims of that same prisoner's crimes get tossed aside and forgotten. Inmates sentenced to death often spend a decade or more in jail while the appeals process drags on and on and on.
