I don't see the point in having bail. Why should you be able to buy your way out of a crime that you committed?
How is it fair that a poor person has to stay in jail for the time sentenced because they can't afford bail but a rich person who can afford it can just pay it and act like it never happened? Why not just get rid of it completely and make people stay in jail for the time they were sentenced and the time they deserve no matter their financial status. Just because they have money doesn't mean they should be exempt from what they did in my opinion.
Just thinking about it, and wondering what your thoughts were or how bail even got started? Thanks.

If the Twentieth Century proved anything, it is that the single greatest danger to human life are the thugs of the centralized political State, who extinguished more than 170 million souls during the bloodiest rampage in recorded history.

Money makes the world go around, the world go around, the world go around!! A Mark, a Yen, a Buck or a Pound...
OK, sorry I HAD to do that...
I do agree with that, but it's not like you say. You can only buy your way out if it's not proven that you committed the crime, if it's proven you will go to jail.

The Bible is very clear. You either choose Satan (money) or God as your master. You can't have two masters. We (society) have chosen Money and now everything revolves around money, so much so that we are blinded by money and refuse to see God, who is standing beside us with tears in his eyes.
