I'm not saying everyone in prison needs to be released. I think we need to be a Nation of laws and consquences. However, some laws are just stupid and create more problems than they have ever solved.
If it's a stupid law, like not paying income or property taxes or for some drug prohibition law. I would love it, if it all of them got a pardon. Matter of fact, if elected president. I would pardon everyone in prison on non-violent drug charges and every single tax protestor or person in prison on tax violations.
I fail to see why people should have to go Prison for not giving the Government money, either.
