The biggest majority of.the people in this world today, must have more money than they know what to do with, or they could not afford these outrageous probation fees

Probation can be violated in many ways, Not having money for fines, Not being able to complete you comunity service hours, not taking all the classes you are suppose to.
Most reasons probation is violated is because they work full time, and dont have time to take 4 days a week off to take classes, do community service, or have money after bills because they had to cut their work hours in half.

so if you understand what im saying, Its a catch 22 for alot of people. you stay out of jail and take the probation, you have to try to balance your job, your family, your community service, and your classes. so if you have kids, and a job its basically impossible to get everything required done in the time span given to these people.
you can either work full time and pay your fine, and slowly do your other requirements, or finish all your requirements in the allotted time and not be able to make your fine payments.
Thats not even to mention the drug test 50 dollars a pop, taking time off work to do that, or see your officer, if you have to get an alcohol monitor that's about 100 a week for a min of a month.
In court there was a man that was struggling to make his payments, working 2 jobs. this is word for word what was said that day.
judge " well I assume you have a car to get to work?"
Man "yes sir"
Judge "well if you cant pay your fine then sell your car for money"
Man "then how do i get to work?"
Judge "a cab, a bus a friend i dont care"
Man " sir ill lose my jobs without my car"
Judge " well youll just have to work it out of spend the rest of your time in the corrections facility."
I recommend everyone go and sit in a few days at the court house. it is disturbing the penalties they give these people
