nah just means faster data to google botnet
I feel that this is a huge misconception on there part, a lot of convicts arenât acutally bad people they just got dealt a shitty hand in life and thatâs how it played out and in fact are way more likely to help somebody in need because they know what its like to be on the other side. I donât think theyâd hestiate for one second before breaking the law if it meant saving somebodies life which I donât know if I can say the same for the average person on the street.
Imagine this scenario (and itâs just an example):
Guy breaks into car/home/etc with lock picking.
Gets caught, arrested and put in front of a judge.
The judge, instead of only judging the crime (cause, yeah, itâs a crime) asks why he did what he did.
Guy says he doesnât have an education, canât get a job, so he resorted to breaking in and selling the stuff he stole to get by.
Instead of putting him in jail he fines him, puts him on parole for a year and puts him into a government funded locksmith apprenticeship with partnered businesses (they can opt into the program).
So instead of sitting in a prison, still without an education or a legal source of income and he wonât have any when he gets out PLUS he has a criminal record with jail time on it AND he costs the citizens money cause the prison is funded with tax money, he gets help.
Of course you canât really do that with every type of crime. Lock the murderers, sex offenders, child molesters, etc. up for good. Especially the ones who are multiple offenders.
But I guess this is turning more into a topic for the pol thread.
Or we get rid of victimization in victimless crime
Also corporations are not people there for yar har
there is some programs for education, vocational training and stuff, but that gets weird, not all the places can do college courses and stuff/really low percentage of inmates use it when it is there
dunno how you get a big push for allocation of funds/changin system to make it available at more when only 35 percent of state prisons provide college-level courses, and these programs only serve six percent of incarcerated individuals nationwide.

like if of the 35% of state prisons that had it they were like max capacity constantly then can see a reasonable push for increasing funding/access, where with utilization so low could probably just figure out a transfer system where inmate could request access to those programs, and just shuffle them into the other places that have it
I didnât even mean college level, but for high school dropouts. Give them a chance to graduate high school and learn a trade. Not everyone can be Mr. college-graduate Wallstreet programmer lawyer doctor of modern arts etc. and everyone needs electricians, plumbers, lumberjacks, sewage workers, garbage collectors, mailman, etc.
Oh, and donât forget the âHeRoEs Of ThE pAnDeMiCâ: the essential workers who get paid shit and are taken for granted.
