 Here is an endlessly interesting article covering an expansive breadth of the ideas that we covered in this class and the prior one, though admittedly not about the criminal justice system. It analyzes how irresponsibly the medical community and Big Pharma have nursed a "want" among Americans to substitute a pharmacological quick-fix for traditional therapeutic treatment with a psychiatrist to solve all the stresses of modern life. The system encourages this illusory desire from all directions: insurance companies favoring cheap pills over expensive therapy sessions, Big Pharma implanting a "want" in the consumer with advertisements, doctors negligently prescribing pills, and more.
