It also means our government passes too many stupid laws infringing on our rights. NYC had a a guy locked up for a month as he couldn't pay a hundred dollar fine for public intoxication which a federal judge declared unconstitutional. Our justice system has become in certain cases a debtors prison.
Prison is not the place to be if you have substance misuse, mental health and financial issues. Just another burden on the tax payer but mostly they will not rehabilitate in prison.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
