JUSTICE SYSTEM DESERVES FUNDING

As a retired lawyer, I am fully aware that the courts are underfunded 
and that justice is being delayed or denied every day.

That problem would be solved, and many others as well, if we accepted 
the fact that the war on drugs has been a disastrous failure and we 
ended it. Not only would our children be saved, but the courts would 
be relieved of the flood of unnecessary prosecutions.
