California got cold feet on bail reform as voters rejected a groundbreaking program to eliminate money from pretrial release decisions. Now Illinois shows it can work.
You joke, but I’ve seen polls where there’s a big consensus of people saying the country’s economy is going down the toilet, but also that their own state and their own family situation is doing quite a bit better than that going-down-the-toilet average.
That second half sheds some fascinating insight on the first half, and yet, it’s almost never included in reporting of the polls.
It was a joke but it’s also real. I live in a city in California and I’ve heard suburbanites say it’s literally not safe to come to my neighborhood because they actually think they will be spotted and attacked instantly. Meanwhile, as I mentioned, crime rates have dropped considerably and I can’t even think of a single person I know who has had a recent problem with crime. It’s like the media has whole-cloth fabricated a crisis that just isn’t happening and I feel like no one but me can see it. Insane.

The country pretty much shrugged their shoulders after 9-11 so why not?
