I mean criminals do know a lot about crime. maybe they are right?

If you just leave the criminals alone and let them do as they please they'll regulate themselves. A criminal justice system is just unnecessary and expensive administrative overhead. It stifles the free market.

exactly. the only reason im robbed for so much is because of the cost the criminals incur because of the justice system. If we let the free market handle it the cost of being robbed will drop to the what the market will bear. Criminals will compete to rob you of less.

This is why it’s important that we continue to give tax breaks to the criminals and subsidize their operations for specific projects that would help everyone.

But again, we must make sure to not cause any undue burden on the criminals by making those funds conditional, or regulating how the projects are carried out. Otherwise they will be forced to rob us further, and who could blame them?
