In the future, I feel probation programs should be changed and only offered to first time offenders or crimes that are considered low on the poll. If a person has violated their probation I do not feel they should be given another chance, their right to probation should be revoked and prison time served. I also feel that part of the probation program should concentrate on rehabilitation of the person that was placed on probation. There is always an underlying issue that has caused the person to sway down the path of committing crimes or drug use. With that being said, individual and possibly family therapy should be mandatory to get to the root of the underlying issue and deal with it in a professional way that will get the person back on track to a successful life.
The drug given is called soma. Soma blocks and numbs reality and replaces it with happy hallucinations. It also blocks people’s ability to see the life they actually live, which is a form of manipulation because citizens are manipulated to take soma, which helps them live a happy and perfect lifestyle. The government also influences/encourages the citizens to take soma tablets but the amount is regulated. Since soma is taken every day the amount given is regulated so there is no such thing as overdose.
Politicians have stated thy will introduce new laws wanting tougher background checks, forced registration, and outright banning of military looking firearms. All these types of new laws will cut down on crime and make this country a safer place. But I believe the way to protect against a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun. First of all on the issue of it will cut down on violent crime, who are they kidding criminals rarely obey laws; studies show most criminals acquire guns through friends or theft. Adam Lanza the shooter at Newtown stole the guns he used from his mother.
Further more young adults start the habit without using during their adolescence and others who had stopped decided to restart when older (Parker et al., 1998) The normalization of drug use has huge implications for social work profession. Certainly drugs will be encountered by professions in their practice and simplistic response of ‘just stop or else’ will not do. Drugs are a reality and social work practice needs to catch up to embrace this added complexity in its work with clients (Anthony,
Amanda Barrier Mrs. Carson Junior English 5 March 2012 The Influence of Amphetamines in America “Since amphetamine-like stimulants have high abuse potential and other adverse toxic consequences, why do we continue to use them”(Ellinwood 4)? Large percentages of Americans use, or in other cases, abuse these amphetamine-like drugs on a daily basis. They have been used medically over time for a wide variety of conditions, including: obesity, narcolepsy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and asthma. Unfortunately, Americans continue to abuse the substance, causing harmful effects on many aspects of the body, mind and soul. “Amphetamine abuse has been present at least at low endemic levels ever since the introduction of these drugs in the 1930s.
One argument is that if the parole system was ended then violent offenders release would not be contested but be automatic at the end of a set period of time (Butterfield, 1999). When a person is set back or denied parole by the board because of their actions in prison, the crime they committed, or their lack of remorse for the crime a board can deny that parole. With that system gone that offender is pushed back on the streets without any checks to reoffend. In addition, judges have specified sentencing choices that have a range of different options that they can choose from. They are allowed some flexibility depending on the situation but this allows a sliding scale of punishment based on what the criminal did.
It is possible for John to be penalized or he could lose his employment with the company. The Sycamore Pharmaceuticals will get a legal actions called to them for the immoral actions and again Blake may lose his job or at least not receive a bonus at the end of the year. Although the benefits for being honest and informing the FDA about all that he knows about the drug they are promoting should give him a good piece of mind and it will also show people that he is a good and moral person. “Workforce participation is a key feature of public mental health and social inclusion policies across the globe, and often a therapeutic goal in treatment settings”. (Olesen, S. C.,) Together with the mental health that will come from being a good individual Blake should not have a problem getting a new position with a new company if Sycamore Pharmaceuticals decided to let him go or he could just decide to walk out on his own.
House arrest, as in the case of Martha Stewart in recent history, prevents the probationer from moving about freely in society but may allow for them to go to work (and continue paying taxes) and then return home immediately afterward. They may also be required to wear electronic monitoring devices. Shock incarceration is meant to introduce the convicted person to a prison atmosphere for a relatively short period of time in order to "shock" them into reality that it is not a place they want to return to. Following this brief incarceration, they may be offered probation to serve the remainder of their sentence. All of the above intermediate sanctions are aimed at rehabilitation without the need to serve time in prison, keeping families together and saving millions in taxpayer dollars.
There you have it, my honest opinion. Drug Test for welfare benefits. I don’t want to support anyone else’s habit when I am having a hard time making ends meet.” Drug testing will require recipients to stay free of drug use, making them employable. As author Heather Ben states, “The government’s latest welfare reforms all beneficiaries will be required to take pre-employment tests when requested by a prospective employer, Those who refuse or repeatedly fail, will have their benefits cut or suspended.” Passing the bill could minimize the purchase of illegal drugs, making our children and society a safer place. This also includes prescription drugs as well.
If we plan on saving our future through our children and showing them how this country has stood through the test of time, we must find a way to reduce the flow of illegal drug in the United States. Reducing drug trafficking won’t be easy and has not been for many years now but with new technology, more man power, special task forces to help apprehend this criminal from taking our streets, our dreams, and many more lives of innocent people. We must all work together to come up with a solution to this major problem in America. Reducing the flow of illegal drugs will lower the crime rate worldwide, lower the death rate, and violence due to the use of drug. America has been fighting this war on drug trafficking for nearly 50 years and counting will little success if any at all.
