John Kuvinka — Sun, 20 Mar 2016 10:00:03 +0000

The correction system is among many systems in America that fall under some pretty heavy scrutiny. The correctional process, however, doesn’t begin in prison. It enters the game much earlier, and in less direct ways, affecting people’s likelihood or even ability to avoid breaking the law.

So who’s been keeping up with the debates? Anyone? Each party has had its share of hubbub for one candidate or another, to say the least. It seems like election season starts earlier and earlier every year – almost like the holidays. The two times seem to have more in common than just that, I’d think.

With the government babies still having their temper tantrum federal employees with families and bills to pay are being left in the lurch in staggering numbers.

Shutdown!

John Kuvinka — Tue, 01 Oct 2013 17:14:19 +0000

Sounds like scary times, doesn’t it? The government is undergoing a shutdown. What does that really mean, though? Well, basically one part of the government is having a fight with the other part over money so the first part is going on strike. That’s the simple explanation, but it’s more than just a bunch of politicians striking until the administration comes to an agreement with […]
