    Regular crime is way down. Is that true?

      Violent crime peaked around 1990 and it’s been trending down since.

      … I can’t seem to paste the link (thanks jerboa) but see the “crime in United States” Wikipedia Page.

      But the number of incarcerated people doesn’t seem to be decreasing. So I think OP is full of crap.

      It’s much more reasonable that they’re criminalizing homelessness as a way to grow the cheap labor force.

        Line needs to go up. It’s not enough to have the same amount of prisoners as last year, you need more.
