Trump’s Crime Theater: Why Tough Policing Fails and Inequality Fuels Crime
from Educate the Planet · host Educate The Planet
People-powered, AI-GeneratedSeason 10, Episode 19In our 19th episode of season 10, we focus on the data and science around why "tough on policing" is always used by politicians but is slightly effective short-term to garner votes but never effective long-term. We also focus on why reducing inequality has been shown to reduce crime and is the most effective way to focus on crime prevention and reduction, but it takes much longer than "tough on crime" laws which could hurt their ability to be re-elected, therefore, it is the focus of a lot of politicians on the right to fight crime, like when the U.S. fights terrorism or other issues but never addresses the root cause of those issues:https://guywolf070425.substack.com/p/trumps-crime-theater-why-tough-policing?r=5d8qd2 This is a public episode.
