    Violent crime peaked around 1990 and it’s been trending down since.

    … I can’t seem to paste the link (thanks jerboa) but see the “crime in United States” Wikipedia Page.

    But the number of incarcerated people doesn’t seem to be decreasing. So I think OP is full of crap.

    It’s much more reasonable that they’re criminalizing homelessness as a way to grow the cheap labor force.
