I wish I could broadcast a usual criminal docket, and make everybody watch it. I would guess that we spend close to 1/2 of our government dollars supporting 10-15% of the population. The same folks that are career criminals are also the folks who file for disability, won't work to take care of their kids, show up to the emergency room for taxpayer-funded medical care, get three hots and a cot in prison, etc.
