If bail was based on income, or the abilty of the       accused to pay it, that should eliminate the complaint that the system is       not fair to poor people. I don't necessarily believe it would lead to more       people being let go, which is not fair to victims, and would be more fair       to everyone... certainly more so than "cashless bail."                      * SLMR 2.1a * Football players do it after they are blitzed.       --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/305 153/7715 154/110 218/700 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 229/110 111 114 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 664       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 266/512 291/111 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45       SEEN-BY: 460/58 712/848 902/26 2320/0 105 3634/12 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 229/426           |
