No but we could revise our policing system to be less of a government revenue generating service and reorient it toward localist community policing with elected sherrifs presiding over communities they are actually from. This would help demilitarize the police mindset and improve relations, limiting civilian riots and police brutality.

We would also dramatically benefit from ousting private prison corporations from our disciplinary system, the profit motive has turned our prisons into a revolving door where criminals come in halfway crooked and a little poor and leave fully insane and destitute. That becomes generational and the current policy of dumping ever increasing sums of taxpayer money into the black holes of prison and police budgets is a ridiculous concept on it's face.

Tying into this we would benefit from seriously examining our draconian drug laws which were nakedly tailored to serve their corporate sponsors going all the way back to the days of hemp and hearst.

Finally we need to become genuinely tough on crime and start raiding wall street and DC; our political and economic elites commit crimes by the hour ranging from benign cocaine huffing to pedophilia on little saint james island to treasonous outsourcing of American wealth to international markets. Rather than tolerate these massive violations we should put these scofflaws in their place and know that our duly elected sheriffs are willing to fine, arrest or God forbid gun down these millionaire maniacs before their murderous rampage consumes the whole nation.

Sprinkle in poverty destruction programs like public infrastructure jobs (more will be available when we stop using 12 cent an hour prison labor and make these fine paying jobs to raise a family on), modernized public healthcare and a UBI and we can ensure a powerful American people. Fail to do this and our children's children will all be speaking Chinese in privately-owned, government-funded detention centers.
