I pass these thoughts on to the “middle class” hard-working people who are responsible for the lion's share of paying the bills, also known as taxes, allocated by various levels of government.
We have both worked hard in the past and present to buy our homes, cars, and household necessities. We are referred to as the backbone of government-funded programs. Although that title is free, the middle class sacrifices nearly 50 percent of their hard-earned wages.
We pride ourselves on living in a democracy, but when election time comes, a lack of real leadership leads us to vote for the party or individual we find least offensive. is common. We are trying to get our way, relying on empty promises used to get our votes, while pointing out the accusations that various political parties and individuals are accusing their opponents of. Masu.
Canada has a legal system. Not to be confused with the judicial system.
Every day, in every jurisdiction, we read and hear stories about criminals being repeatedly arrested, processed, and released because of a benevolent legal system. It appears that the charge of “violation of release restrictions” will be automatically added to most charges.
The Bail Reform Act establishes conditions of release for individuals charged with a variety of crimes. Changes to the law will be voted on in the House and Senate. One would think that these institutions, with their excessive number of lawyers in the House of Representatives, would be able to pay adequate attention to changes in our judicial system.
Perhaps the adage “those who can't teach teach” may change. In this case, it would be “someone who cannot preach.”
