2193...Law And Order Is Expensive

And profitable for a few.

Heather Scoffield of Canadian Press writes that "A price tag for part of the Conservatives' law-and-order agenda is about to be made public - and the number is in the billions, far higher than any previous estimates. The Parliamentary Budget Officer forecasts the cost of implementing just one of the Tories' many tough-on-crime bills is between $7-billion and $10-billion over the next five years."

That is with a "B".

This of course is not a crime agenda, it is a punishment agenda.

It looks good to the people who would never think of breaking a law; tons of folks who are lawbreakers are not smart enough to know that the laws have even changed.
