Re: Immunity Well see, there's a difference between what politicians see in jail and what the common man experiences. When I say send politicians to jail, I mean to maximum security penitentiaries that don't have luxuries. I'm talking down to the bone basics. To top off their stays, they should be mainstreamed into the general populous and not given their own prison cell. We shouldn't treat corrupt politicians as celebrities. If we're going to Britany Spears, Martha Stewart, or OJ these politicians, they won't ever change. If we take a hardline stance with them upon conviction, maybe they'll think twice before breaching the public trust. If not, we can always take comfort in the fact they are rotting behind bars, and not enjoying their stay. Ah yes, what a perfect world would be like if the Rich and connected got the treatment the ordinary man did. |
