Dorothy Parshall,
I appreciate your concern for the poor.
The great majority of my patients are poor. They have expressed all sorts of concerns to me. Not one has ever expressed a fear of being imprisoned due to poverty.
Many of my patients are on probation or parole, and a few are currently incarcerated. I always ask them why. Many name a crime which they admit they committed. Some state they were falsely accused of an actual crime. Not one has claimed he was imprisoned because he was poor.
