Depressed people should not have to be told not to be depressed? Drug addicts should not have be told not to be addicted to drugs? Suicidal teenagers should not have to be told not to commit suicide? The entire field of psycholoigy is just a scam?
And, again, you completely miss the the purpose of the stipend. It has nothing to do with not committing another crime. It has to do wiuth getting counselling. That claim you keep making was just a headline to fool the rubes out there.
And, of course, IT IS WORKING. Why do you oppose a program that actually works? Do you prefer to just pay more and more taxes top build and staff more jails and prisons? Are you the one who tells the victims of violent crimes that you don't want to help them?
If people are criminals we shouldn't be paying them anything. Cut them off of all services.
Mind you I say this with the understanding that we need massive adjustment with how we punish several crimes. but then that is a whole other thread diving into that topic.
