Baltimore’s new $1 billion jail will be most expensive state-funded project in history thebaltimorebanner.com/community/crim…
@Phil_Lewis_ Wow that’s amazing, hopefully tax payer money spend on the betterment of community.
@Phil_Lewis_ I hope the funds are going for guidance counseling ( addiction specialists) , social workers, educational facilities, libraries, vocational training, trained, supportive staff.Somehow I doubt it but I hope.
@Phil_Lewis_ NEVER FORGET! Reparations for Black people! Rectify the dehumanization and the pain inflicted upon Black ppl for centuries! We will continue to demand what's rightfully ours until we receive it!
@Phil_Lewis_ No this a bridge collapsing conspiracy I can get with
Well, Baltimore receives more per pupil school funding than any country on earth (Sweden, Germany, Japan, France, Singapore, you name it) and has unbelievably abysmal results. Like, many schools with ZERO proficiency in math or reading. So, this is the belt-and-suspenders approach.
@Phil_Lewis_ Sad commentary.
@Phil_Lewis_ You can just call it a plantation that’s what it’s really for.
@Phil_Lewis_ They are going to spend $1 billion, not on a school, not on a hospital, not on transportation, not on housing, and not on infrastructure, but on a jail. Read that again.
@Phil_Lewis_ when you're letting most criminals out with no bail, this idea seems absurd
