How severe are the changes today being made? <br />Remember when people who committed crimes, <br />Were locked away and sent to prison? <br />One not equipped to provide those incarcerated, <br />With the best of technology. <br /> <br />Well... <br />Today, <br />People are committing crimes to be sent to prison, <br />To enable them to learn a trade to qualify... <br />For a decent job that pays higher wages. <br /> <br />And those attempting to live decent lives are penalized, <br />By paying higher taxes on lowered wages paid. <br />While those severe changes being made, <br />Are as clear for all to see... <br />To believe in.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
