30 days

I feel depressed.
The show I just watched was terribly sad, a 30 days episode about jail. It made me think about how completely useless many of the jails are, and how society has failed so many people, and plain wishing drugs just didn't exist.
It's incredible that somebody could spend 15 to 50 in and out of jail.
And that somebody could be grateful to be in jail so they can finally get off heroine.
And that there really isn't any help for many people either while they're in jail or the day they step out.

I'm afraid this show has put me in a bad mood, wanting to shake my fist at "the man" because I don't have a solution.

Yuck.
