#4 Political Contradiction

As reading the "Political Philosophy" I am learning that it is the study of politics, liberty, justice, property, rights, law, and enforcement of legal codes by law. I learn that the right and freedoms it protects and why, what form it should take and why, what law is and how it refers to a general view or specific ethic political belief or attitude.
  However, I seem to disagree with the "Political Philosophy" because I see laws broke all the time, I see people trying to protect there rights and freedom, which just gets taken away, I see people trying to get justice and they never receive it. The Political Philosophy is doing nothing to protect the honest working people but the people who are law breakers and always trying to get away with something, like murder, rape, stealing, hit and run.
  I work at a kroger and I see people everyday trying to get away with buying something they truky dont need. I see people who make a wall with the same kind of pop, for example Mountain Dew.. They make a wall with the cases of pop and then stick laundry detergent, fabric softner, cans of vegatbles, packages of meat. Whatever they van get there hands on and will be hidden by the pop. They then go to the checkout acting like the only have pop, handing them one case to ring up for the amount they have in there buggy. The cashier paying no attention does not see all the other goodies they have placed in there buggy and they leave the store only paying $50 dollars for pop when they should have paid $200 for the goodies stached in between the cases of pop. Even if these shoplifters are caught they go to jail for a few months and then are released to continue doing the same job until they are caught again. This is just one of the many things I have noticed  and seen. People breaking laws can get away with pretty much anything because they know the tricks in and out of the laws.
  I have even heard of someone raping and murding their neighbor, they are in jail for a few months released on good behavior and sent to see a psych. Meanwhile we have them doing it all over again and they never learned a thing from being in jail. Instead they should treat them like they did to the neighbor they decided to rape and murder. If your punichment was the same thing as the crime or law you broke it would happen less often.
  What I am trying to say is the laws are suppose to be there to protect you and serve you as a person, a state, and a country. However, people breaking the laws are getting away with it while the people trying to make it week to week are struggling and cant get help. Somepeople look at the laws are made to be broken, others look at laws as a way to protect, others look at rules as something to live by.
