In your opinion, should nonviolent criminals be incarcerated? why or why not?

Yes, white collar crimes although non-violent break laws such as fraud and embezzlement. if left unpunished, that person could potentially steal millions of more dollars from innocent, unsuspecting people.

This isn't really a question that can be answered on , if it's for an assignment for your school.

However, personally, I don't think the matter is that black and white. I think that the answer would depend on the severity of the crime and the criminals background. However, I also believe that prison overpopulation is a big issue. Many nonviolent criminals are sent to prison to serve sentences that are too lengthy for the crime committed. Other forms of punishment should be looked at, such as community service or a fine. Again, it should fit the crime.  But if I were to give a simple answer, it would be that no, I do not believe nonviolent criminals should be incarcerated because they pose no threat to other people and can easily atone for their actions in alternative forms. 

Remember soh-cah-toasoh: cah: toa: now, looking at the picture we can see that we have an angle, the hypotenuse and want to find the value of the adjacent side to the angle. so we use cah to find the adjacent angle. plug in what we have: we need to solve for x now so we get it by itself on one side: plug this into your calculator and you'll find that:
