    we just keep them incarcerated.

    How very freedom. We are number one in prisoners per capita. Land of the Free my ass.

    Any system that intentionally increases crime, prisoners per capita, and cost is a bad system. There are alternatives that reduce all three. But it requires everyone investing in education.

        Nobody is intentionally increasing crime

        Republicans and people like you are trying to destroy education. And that leads to higher crime rates.

        So ultimately you’re saying you want higher crime rates.

            Republicans are trying to destroy education by siphoning money away from already underfunded schools. Y’all aren’t trying to fix it. You’re just focusing on culture war bullshit.

                That’s not the claim though. Quit trying to move the goal posts.

                    Then why are talking about money?

                    Because a school needs money to operate. There is a minimum amount of money it takes to operate a school. Taking money away from an already struggling school will just make things worse.

                    You said the were siphoning off money which isn’t true

                    So then where is the money coming from? The government’s budget is a zero sum game.

        If they they want better education. Pay for it. It’s that simple. It’s not my job to pay for everyone’s education. I pay for the education in my area.

        I mean, I’m no deontologist…but what do you think would happen if everyone believed this?
