I just finished this book. I’m so pissed! Like I knew it would be bad but it truly shocked me.

Yes!! My ebook is due back at the library; I just went and bought a hard copy and am transferring all my highlights. I finished the book today. Bleak!

I mean, it’s a huge company but I’m halfway through the book No More Tears about J&J and it’s maybe the most evil shit I’ve ever read

Oof, I’m 20% in and it’s infuriating!

The reality is that bail doesn't keep people safe. It's not a system built on "justice."

Instead, it perpetuates an endless cycle of poverty and jail time that ruins lives and makes communities less safe.

Reading ‘No More Tears’ about Johnson & Johnson feels close, too. How so many industries have been ruthless in their pursuit of profit over lives. And our govt has been toothless against these industries for so long too, failing to protect the people.
